This mound is a probable Neolithic long barrow. It is 28 m long, 17 m wide and tree-covered. There are no traces of side ditches, but it could be a short long barrow. The mound has never been excavated.
The monument is located SE of Chisbury Lane Farm and West of Buckwood Farm. There is a footpath leading from the road towards the NW, the mound is on its left.
