Wormwood Hill
Wormwood Hill submitted by Thorgrim : This massive barrow lies in woodland by the A1307 - date not established yet. It is accessible as it is in the grounds of Wandlebury Country Park. Not far from Wandlebury hill fort and the Via Devana Roman road from Godmanchester to Colchester, there is another round barrow at Copley Hill and the ploughed out Babraham long barrow near Meggs Hill.
