From Exploring Kent's Past: "Two large bowl barrows lie on either side of the Canterbury road at Swingfield Minnis, on level ground at a height of 480ft OD. `A' [TR 21324245] lies in the corner of a field, under grass, and is partly mutilated by a private garden. It has been much reduced by ploughing and measures about 28.0m in diameter and 0.9m in height. There is no visible ditch. `B' [TR 21244233] lies in a ploughed field and is 23.0m in diameter and 1.0m in height. There is no visible ditch." http://extranet7.kent.gov.uk/ExploringKentsPast/SingleResult.aspx?uid=MKE5895
