Only a small unploughed hump remains of this Bronze Age round barrow which can be found in the grounds of Swettenham Hall.

Note: Please note this barrow is located on private land but can be easily viewed from the road at the entrance to the Hall.

Swettenham Hall
Swettenham Hall submitted by Vicky : Swettenham Hall barrow Found in the entrance drive to Swettenham Hall in Cheshire the Bronze Age barrow (SJ814667 Landranger 118/Explorer 268) barely survives in the arable field. Being scheduled offers a little protection as can be seen by the fact that it has not been ploughed. It is a typical example of a Cheshire barrow! (Vote or comment on this photo)
