Round Barrow in Flintshire (Sir y Fflint)
"1. Positioned on a local rise this turf-covered mound measures 13.5m (N-S) by 12.3m with a height of 1m on the W, 0.6m elsewhere. A rough track across the field runs close by on the W and some damage has been caused to this side of the mound by vehicles.
2. Opened 1912, revealing primary interment, ashes and small fragments of calcined bones in a central cist. Below were Neolithic features."
