Round Barrow(s) in Suffolk
Details from Historic England entry:
'The monument includes a bowl barrow set on the edge of a slope overlooking Scotland Fens and The Tang to the north-east. The barrow has an earthen mound covering an area 17m in diameter and standing to a maximum height of 1.2m. The mound was probably once encircled by a ditch from which soil was dug and used in its construction. If so, this has become infilled and no trace of it is now visible on the ground surface. Evidence of such a ditch has, however, been noted in association with other barrow mounds in the surrounding area.'
