Barrow

In wet pasture adjacent to a group of sites. A ditch-barrow (LI024-066----) lies 30m to NE, ring-barrow (LI024-065----) located 50m to W, enclosure (LI024-291----) located 7m to NE. The barrow is not depicted on historic OSi maps nor is it visible on OSi orthoimages taken 2005-12 or on Digital Globe orthoimages taken 2011-2013. Identified by Bruff aerial photographic survey in 1986 (Bruff 27; AP 4/3666) as a circular enclosure (ext. diam. c. 20m). It is not visible on ASI aerial photographic survey 23/08/2000 (ASIAP (132) 33). The ditch-barrow is not visible on the most recent Google Earth orthoimages taken 18/11/2018, however, the curving NW ditch of the barrow is visible on the Google Earth orthoimage taken 25/03/2017. The W, S and E side have been incorporated into modern field boundaries.

Ditch barrow, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age. Its location among multiple related monuments suggests it is part of a ritual or funerary landscape.
