The remains of this long barrow can be seen in a field to the east of lane which runs along the ridge between Tyley Bottom and Ozleworth Bottom. The fields were empty at the time I was there, so I nipped in for a look. Obviously once a very large barrow, it is now in two parts, a southwestern round bit, and a northeastern elongated bit, all very disturbed and with large dips and excavations in the top. The mound is obviously constructed from stones, and there are remains of some fairly large stone slabs still to be seen in places. It obviously was once fenced off, as there are remains of fence posts surrounding the remains.
