The northern barrow (SU 4559 2700) is 2.5 m high and it’s bowl shape is perfectly distinguishable. Unfortunately, it is particularly damaged by badgers.
The southern barrow is in much poorer condition, it is only 1 m high and has 19 m in diameter. It is partly gutted, in it’s central part there is a significant hollow.
