This Bronze Age Round Barrow never seems to be mentioned in its own right, because it is so near to the famous Windmill Tump and is less imposing it seems always to be the 'afterthought'. First excavated (before its illustrious neighbour) by Lysons in 1779, it is now in a seriously damaged condition having been the subject of a squat by badgers for countless years. It's diameter of 22m (curtailed to 15m by a drystone wall and a road to its S) is more impressive than its height of 1.5m. Although Lysons called it Inlands, it was given the Hasleden name by Rudder just a few years later, but then the nearest farm (to the N) is called Hazleton Manor Farm. You have to get into the thin sling of woodland or even into the field just to the north to get a fair appreciation of its size.
