What is recorded here
In pasture. A circular enclosure (diam. c. 8m) defined by a fosse, visible on satellite imagery (© Google Earth, imagery date 20 January 2020), identified and reported by Jean-Charles Caillère. The size of the enclosure and the presence of other barrows in the surrounding area, including a ring-barrow (TS066-203----) c. 350m to the SSW, would suggest that this is a barrow.

Ditch barrow, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age. Its significance lies in its visibility on satellite imagery and contribution to understanding early funerary and ritual landscapes in the region.
