Round Clump submitted by davidmorgan : This is an amazingly huge barrow, with a ditch round it, covered in ancient yews. Might be easier to see in winter. (1 comment - Vote or comment on this photo)

Round Clump
Round Clump submitted by JimChampion : This barrow is in the middle of a small wood named Round Clump and hence is impossible to photograph in its entirety. This shows one end of the barrow, with its long back running off picture at right. Round Clump is used for rearing pheasants.
