At SP15182884 are the concentric cropmarks of a large double ditched enclosure (That possibly once had a large barrow in it), It's the same size as the very nearby Condicote Henge, The concentric cropmarks are at/beyond the western end of Eubury Camp (SP15752875), a possible early iron age camp (The camp is now thought to be derived from an apparent enclosure made by 4 different elements). The concentric structure sits close to the top of the highest point on the ridge occupied by the supposed camp.
In the nearby Hull Plantation at SP1558029228 is a barrow cemetery of eight bowl barrows in two discrete groups of four situated on the upper northern valley slopes of the River Dikler. The barrows survive as circular mounds surrounded by quarry ditches from which the construction material was derived, some of the ditches are visible and some are preserved as buried features. The barrow mounds vary in size from 9m up to 20m in diameter and from 0.7m up to 2m high. At least three have visible ditches and one mound is crescent-shaped being best preserved on the eastern side and two are conjoined by their ditches. The two groups are approximately 30m apart, There's another barrow in the plantation a little to the east at SP1577129189
