Barrow

Situated on a N-facing slope, just below the summit of a steep rise, in undulating pasture, with extensive views in all directions. Depicted on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map and the revised 1913 ed. OS 25-inch map as a small, circular-shaped earthwork. Monument described as a circular-shaped round-bottomed depression (dims. 12m E-W; 11.7m N-S), which has been scooped out of a natural rise and is defined by a bank and a fosse. The earthen bank is well preserved and there is a narrow, shallow, steep-sided outer fosse. There is no recognisable entrance. Monument is visible today as a small circular-shaped tree-planted earthwork on Digital Globe aerial photography. Compiled by Alison McQueen, Vera Rahilly and Caimin O’Brien.
