The barrow to the north west is 35 metres in diameter and around 2,5 metres in height. It has only very short cut grass covering it and a huge beautiful hanging birch tree close to the top. On the top was once a windmill but it has long been removed.
The other barrow to the south east is also 35 metres in diameter and around 3,5 metres in height. It is close to the fence surrounding the park and has a number of large trees growing on top. Both the barrows have their tops rather flattened.
