BrownEdger couldn't find on 7th Apr 2013 Saw a huge misshapen mound in the field containing Hurst Low but that looked more like a spoil heap or something. Large agricultural building has been erected nearby in same field too. Whole area very messy with vehicles parked in the field and bits of rusty agricultural equipment lain about. Failed to I.D. the barrow.

Hurst Low
Hurst Low submitted by twentytrees : Marked as Tumuli on the map but this may refer to nearby Grindon Moor barrow. There appears to be numerous mounds in a line (lined up on nearby Butterton church spire?) but they are in a much denunded state, so difficult to be sure. Not scheduled.
