Burnt mound

What is recorded here

In pasture, located on the E bank of a canalised stream (Wth base c. 1.2m; D c. 1.8m). The ground immediately around the mound is damp and lowlying, but rises very gradually to E. This burnt mound appears to have been partly levelled in the past. It is evident as a low, grass-covered D-shaped mound (12m E–W; 12m N–S; H 0.3-0.4m), with the straight side at W bordered by the stream. It is composed of black soil and fragments of stone with a heat-shattered appearance.
