The Cornwall HER lists 9 barrows here, some of which are visible only as crop-marks. O/S Explorer 126, shows 3, adjacent Highborough Farm and a fourth in a plantation to the east. I saw only 2 from a track, alongside Highborough Farm, and could only get a decent photo of the better preserved example at SS 25291 14170.
