Description Perhaps the worst ot the sites. It is only discernable because of the monument 'M' posts in each corner. If the scrub was removed it stands barely 18" above the surrounding ground. It has a large 'dig' depression in the centre. It has recently been cleared of gorse. Perhaps someone in the forestry feels guilty! Otherwise, it is deeply scarred by planting furrows.

25m off the modern path, this barrow is oddly sited well away from the 'scarp' edges of the landscape being well 'inland'.
