North of Monyash take the track which heads west by Dalehouse Farm. The barrow is clearly visible in the second field on the right. The barrow is around 1m at its highest point and around 10m in diameter.
Looking north-west Chelmorton Low with its two round barrows at the western end of the ridge at which Five Wells chambered cairn is located on the eastern end. Looking SSW Arbor Low is probably visible - needs confirmation.
A second barrow (SK146675) is located nearby - continue up the path to a point where five paths meet by a derelict barn. The barrow is located 380m ene at the highpoinit of the fields where two walls cross - difficult to spot.
Both are shown as Tumulus on the OS map but not listed in http://www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/appendix8.htm which is reliable.
