Barrow, ring-barrow

What is recorded here

On a gentle S-facing slope the remains consists of a circular ring-barrow (diam. 15m) in fair condition. It comprises a low flat central area (diam. 3m) encircled by a fosse and a broad low external bank. A gap (Wth 6m) in the bank at NE appears to be the result of field clearance. One set stone is visible in this area. (Rynne 1991, 29) Compiled by: Paul Walsh Date of upload: 2 March 2015
