A bronze age round barrow was opened at Bradley Hall sometime before 1787 and reported in that year. It was found to contain "a square cavity, composed of stones set on edge, which enclosed the remains and ashes of the interred". Later reports describe a skeleton found within the cist.
The burial site has been modified to make an ice house in the late 18th century.
There is no public access to this site.
