A Neolithic barrow, likely a ring barrow or bell barrow, dating to the Early to Middle Neolithic period (c. 3500–2500 BCE). Its construction features, including a scarp and fosse, indicate a ceremonial or funerary function typical of Neolithic burial monuments in lowland Britain.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
