Barrow Cemetery in Powys
There are eight barrows scattered around the tiny village of Staylittle, an unfortunately named place as your bound to want to stay quite long.
Starting in the south, this barrow I couldn't find, or if I did it was covered in bushes. Going north the next barrow is right next to the road on your left. Next is one up the hill in recently felled forestry land. Heading north again is the next barrow in the corner of a field on the west side of the road. Then no more than a hundred yards on your right is another high up in a field by more forestry. From here two more close together can be seen across the road at the back of their field, and one more high on a hill looking over the whole cemetery. A damn fine site if a little spread out.
Seven of the barrows listed on Coflein.
