Not a lot to see here. Something for the enthusiast with an active imagination. Allegedly the remains of a round barrow. Can find nothing in the SMR. Arguably, I found a slight raised area to the SW of St Cross Church, N of Branden Drive, with a circular depressed area around it (circled in pic). This was the most convincing thing I could find that there was something here. Just to the W there was a small mound among some trees near the footpath, but I did not find that so convincing. Thoughts anyone?
