What is recorded here

In low-lying marshy grassland. This roughly subcircular ring-barrow (18m E-W; 16.8m N-S) is defined by a low, grassed-over circular mound (diam. 8m; max. H 0.4m at E; D 0.2-0.4m) surrounded a shollow fosse (max. Wth 5.3m at W; D 0.1-0.4m). There is no trace of an entrance gap. A field drain (Wth 0.9m; D 0.1-0.15m) cuts the monument from NE to SW. This monument was brought to our attention by Dr C. Cunniffe. The following image has been uploaded: GA100-182-_02.jpg Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 17 July 2023

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
