Round Barrow(s) in Oxfordshire
"A Bronze Age bell barrow partially survives as earthworks. The barrow was excavated by Stuart Piggot in 1938. A central oval grave, which appeared to have been plank-lined, contained a cremation accompanied by a bronze awl and bronze rivetted dagger suggesting a transitional early-mid Bronze Age date."
