This round barrow has had its edges cut off by a local road and by construction of the barn next to it, it has also been used as a bridge to the top of the barn making its sides look more steep than they actually is.
The barrow is around 20 metres in diameter and around 2 metres in height. It was originally wider and taller. The top seems flattened but its still recognizable as a round barrow.
