Round Barrow in Shropshire
In the angle of two roads the A 525 and the A 539, a footpath goes just meters away from the barrow but it seems wanderers are not welcome. The entry from the road was very overgrown, I almost missed it, and several wooden fences bar progress along the path. I scaled these easily and made my way over to the barrow, whilst keeping low so as not to erk the land owner who apparently has a thing for horses.
