This is a Bronze Age round barrow marked as Tumulus on OS map, on B1225 North East of Tealby, along which there are several barrows but this one not previously indexed on MP. Near farm labelled as Bully Hill, and site known as Bully Hill * Not to be confused with Bully Hills the seven-long row of barrows at Tathwell.
Covered by vegetation so hard to photograph well, but a good recognisable round shape (person shows height in uploaded photo) and immediately visible from road.
For more information see Pastscape Monument No. 351854 which adds that the barrow is approximately 20 metres across, is described as a 'fine round barrow, and "yielded a skeleton, 4 skulls and other human, and animal bones, charcoal and ashes, and unbaked "British" and Roman pottery fragments, when opened by Trollope."
