What is recorded here

In low-lying wet pasture with ring-barrows (TS065-006002-; TS065-006003-) located c. 30m to the ENE and c. 120m to the SE respectively. Circular area (diam. 4m) enclosed by a slight scarped edge (Wth 1m; H 0.1m) with a shallow fosse (Wth at base 0.8m: D 0.05m) and a low broad external earthen bank (overall Wth 4m; Wth at top 1.5m; ext H 0.1m). From NW-NE the scarped edge, fosse and external bank are not visible at ground level and a modern WSW-ENE orientated modern field drain lies along the line of the fosse. The interior is level and clear of overgrowth. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 12 May 2014
A Bronze Age ring-barrow; part of a small group of related burials. Its location with adjacent ring-barrow monuments suggests a local funerary landscape of significance during the later prehistoric period.
