4clydesdale7 visited on 15th Aug 2011 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 3 Access: 4 Heavily overgrown - technically unnamed but could be referred to as Tetbury/Ilsom Farm/Broadfield Farm Bowl Barrow
The barrow is heavily overgrown and has had its heart ripped out by past excavations, but even so it is 27m in diameter and 1.75m high so it is not easy to miss unless you are speeding. Mentioned in Bris. & Glos. Arch. Soc. Transactions 1960 Vol 79 (as SE of Broadfield Farm) and on the Pastscape website 212874.
