A ring-barrow, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age, and part of a wider pattern of burial monuments in the landscape; its proximity to another ring-barrow suggests a possible funerary or ritual grouping.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
