What is recorded here

Castle Jane House still stands beside the mound, giving the ancient earth a familiar address. The oval shape measures 5.5m by 8m and rises 1.2m above the pasture, large enough to suggest a chamber, cache or memorial rather than a casual heap. Local people have long regarded it as an ancient site, while the house and fields have continued to treat it as a neighbour.
