Round Barrow(s) in Wiltshire
"A Bronze Age bowl barrow defined by a mound, 24m in diameter and 1.5m high, surrounded by a ditch. The barrow was excavated by Colt Hoare in 1805 who found it had previously been disturbed. A primary skeleton in a deep grave, with amber bead, and eighteen perforated wolves' and dogs' teeth, which probably formed a bangle, anklet, or necklace were recovered. Wessex grave 69, South Newton 1. The barrow has also been recorded on aerial photographs."
