This now dished barrow was excavated by J.R. Mortimer, as was every interesting hump and bump in the East Yorkshire landscape.
The field is grazed, mostly by sheep but lately by a fine herd of Belted Galloways. The youngsters of their groups are often to be seen lying in the dished part of the barrow.
On the B1246 about threequarters of the way up Kilnwick Percy Hill going from Pocklington to Warter, on the left, conveniently beside a small layby.
