Round Barrow in Derbyshire
Situated on Kinder Scout close to Williams Clough and Mill Hill.
This is one of two burial mounds that is situated to the south east of Mill Hill, a prominent flat topped hill that forms part of Kinder Scout. The burial mound is on the western edge of the plateau and forms part of a complex of structures that includes the round barrows Kinder Scout I, Kinder Low End and the Druids Altar. It is probable that many more Neolithic and bronze structures exist on Kinder Scout that have been hidden by the accumulation of peat.
To my knowledge the barrow has not been excavated.
