Bowl barrow described by Hampshire Treasures as an open forest site disturbed by insertion of a building on summit. There are no above-ground remains of this Air Ministry building, although there are a few bricks lying around the area. The barrow is on the western end of a sandy ridge overlooking the heathland north of Rush Bush. It is 20 metres in diameter with a maximum height of 1.4m. A shallow ditch surrounds the mound, although parts of it are now infilled [source].
Access Nearest car park is Marchwood Inclosure (grid ref SU39103). Follow the path west through the middle of the conifer plantation and the barrow is at the end overlooking the crossroads.
