Redhill Common
Redhill Common submitted by AlbertResonox : Redhill Common barrow (Vote or comment on this photo)
Round Barrow in Surrey. This almost perfectly circular mound is approx 10 mtrs in diameter has been desecrated by the Surrey Victorian craze for planting pine trees in them.

There are also what appears to be fragments of iron age pots...but recent picnic fires have destroyed them quite effectively...worth a visit none-the-less

There appear to be two barrows here: the one shown in the photograph, and a second, larger one on the other side of the clearing.
