This site shows up on Lidar reasonably well. Observations agree that this is a round barrow. It appears that it has never been recognised for what it is as there is no mention of it in any sources I can find.

It remains flooded for large parts of the year and needs further investigation and subsquent listing as there is foresting and quarrying in the area.
