What is recorded here
Situated on grassland 150m E of Rock Brook House. Outlined as a circular earthwork on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map with possible mound-barrow (WM010-045----) 110m to the S. Not depicted as an antiquity on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map. No surface remains visible of levelled earthwork which appears to have been a landscape feature associated with Rock-Brook House. Depicted in a similar fashion to the mound-barrow (WM010-045----) which may suggest that this earthwork was originally a mound barrow. Alternatively it is possible that both monuments are landscaped tree-rings dating from the post 1700 period.
