Moyle's Burrow
Moyle's Burrow submitted by dooclay : The surviving quadrant (Vote or comment on this photo)
Round Barrow in Cornwall

Moyle's Burrow - round barrow 4' high and 60' in diameter,
apparently robbed; under gorse and grass, cut across by a fence.

Only a quadrant of this round barrow survives;
the remainder has been destroyed by a road and a trackway. The
mound is 0.6 metres high.
