Round Barrow(s) in Cheshire
Information from Pastscape:
"Bronze Age round barrow. Excavations between October 1983 and spring 1985 located a burial pit which contained a single unurned adult male cremation that had probably been deposited in a leather bag. Finds included seven pieces of flint, three of them worked, and a riveted tanged dagger or razor."
