SumDoood visited on 2nd Feb 2017 - their rating: Cond: 1 Amb: 2 Access: 4 I just laughed. Built by farmers and, I think we can safely assume, destroyed by custodians of the countryside.

Round Barrow(s) in Lancashire. One for the lover of green bumps in fields! This round cairn is located on flat land 230m east of Manor Farm, Borwick. It includes an oval shaped mound of turf covered stones up to 0.7m high with maximum dimensions of 31m north-south by 19.5m east-west, the stone construction is exposed in one area of the barrow. Best overall view is from the roadside. This site is not known to have been excavated.
