One of two mounds located in the grounds of Little Moreton Hall in Cheshire. It is postulated that this mound is a barrow but could equally be a more recent landscaped mound. However Jodrell Hall nearby contains barrows that have been incorporated into the gardens as at Jodrell Hall in Cheshire.
Note: David Dimbleby's "How we built Britain" tonight visits Little Moreton Hall (among others), home to these two possible round barrows. BBC1 9.30 to 10.30pm BST.
