Round Barrow in Northumberland

Described as a round barrow situated in a prominent position on a gentle southwest slope on the top of a ridge, which falls away very steeply to the south and west.

Field Investigations carried out in 1957 and 1971 failed to locate the barrow due to dense forest and undergrowth.

The forest planted by Lord Armstrong now covers the entire area around the Cragside estate.

The land is now owned by the National Trust.
