What is recorded here

Barrow is a slightly sunken circular chamber, eight metres across, hidden in Mayo pasture beside a quarry pit. Its stony bank still stands half a metre high under grass and hawthorn berries, marking a place where people once shaped the ridge before fields and fences crossed it. The chamber no longer belongs to one owner or one visible life, but it keeps the shape of human attention: a round edge made deliberate on an open slope.

In pasture, on the SW slope of a ridge, with good views SE−SW. Slightly sunken circular area (diam. mid bank 7.5m NE−SW; 8m NW−SE) defined by a bank (Wth 2.6m; int. H 0.45m at SW, 0.6m at NE; ext. H 0.8m at SW, 0.3m at NE) of stony/gravelly soil. Remnants of a field fence on a NW−SE axis overlie the exterior edge of the bank at NE. There is a small quarry pit (9m N−S; 3-4m E−W) immediately to W and a property fence lies immediately to SE of the site. Sod-covered, with two hawthorn bushes on the perimeter.
