There is no stile or gate to this fence, so presumably the barrow should be admired from a distance. Sadly the information board at the site has been stripped of its information (Jan 2005) so I have drawn from other sources.
There are many similar barrows in this part of the New Forest, but this one is unique in that it has a given name (an obvious reference to its "pudding" shape?). Hampshire treasures states that the barrow is "disturbed on east side", but at least it escaped the fate of many other local tumuli that were lost when the Beaulieu Heath area was used as an airfield during the Second World War.
Access The barrow is on Forrestry Commission land, in the corner of a campsite (only open for camping during the summer). However, access by foot/bike is possible all year round. Nearest car park is off the B3055 at Stockley (SU345017); then take the concrete track west along the southern edge of Stockley Inclosure.
