A bronze age round barrow sited below and about 100m to the north east of HERD HOWE. It sits on a stretch of fairly level ground about 80m to the east of what is probably an Iron Age ENCLOSURE and though not in a particularly prominent position it still has quite extensive views over the relatively flat land to the north.
Its location is usually heavily overgrown and the barrow tends to blend in with the background, consequently its position may not be obvious when looking for it from a distance, however as you approach, it begins to stand out clearly for what it is. The barrow is Historic England LIST ENTRY 1018803 which tells us that 17m in diameter and stands up to 1.1m in height. Also that it is undisturbed and has not been excavated.
