'The land is quite marshy and wet and is used as rough grazing for cattle at the moment. Several low banks of earth and stone also occur in this complex, but, as yet, their relationship to the barrows is unknown. Located on the west bank of a small river which is prone to flooding, c.200m from the coast in an area of marshy grassland...... located c.15.0m to the south of the above mound [KE038-138----] is a second similar but smaller example. It measures 4.00m N-S by 5.00m E-W at base, and is 1.25m in height. It is now eroded on its eastern side, probably due to flooding of the river eroding this side of the barrow. The top of the barrow is slightly eroded where a 2.00m N-S by 3.00m E-W, 0.20m deep depression occurs. This mound appears to be constructed of a mixture of stone and earth.'
