Welcome Thorhild! Good to get photographs of a rare Essex barrow. Look forward to more pics from you.

That is sad especially as so few barrows and other ancient sites remain to be seen in Essex. Most have been ploughed out or built over. The few that are left seem to be subjected to official vandalism. Perhaps it has been fenced off now to stop the mountain bike kids from eroding it.
