BarryC visited on 16th Sep 2022 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 4 A gorgeous autumnal day, out aimlessly trundling on the motorcycle, I remembered this site as having no photographs, surprisingly. I'm sure I remembered this site as having confiers on it, but the single tree is so mature that I must have been imagining that. Footpath across field, and close to the site. Access from the A40 side perhaps unqise - such a fast road, but from the B4047 side one might park relatively easily, and there's a 'stone wall stile' to be negotiated. In September the crop (cereal?) had been harvested. Photogrpahs taken, site seen, onwards in search of coffee and cake...
Asthall Barrow is a medium sized mound with stonework around it and a clump of trees on top. The stone work has probably been added after archaeology was done there.
