BrownEdger visited on 5th May 2014 - their rating: Cond: 1 Amb: 2 Access: 5 Descheduled rather than unscheduled. Calton Moor Barrow is probably seen by more people each day than any other in Staffordshire, but it is virtually destroyed. Of the four quadrants only one partially survives and that's badly plough damaged. Main reason for descheduling though is the track cutting through the centre which Carrington reported.
Unscheduled round barrow marked on OS map and easily visible from the Leek - Ashbourne road. A wall crosses directly over it.
