What is recorded here

On flat poorly drained land with good views in all directions, well drained pasture to S and marshy land to W, N and E. An enclosure (TS043-023----) is located 160m to the SE. A heavily overgrown barrow (overall diam. c. 18m N-S) consisting of a low flat-topped circular mound (base diam. 8m N-S; 7m E-W; top diam. 5m N-S; H 0.3m) enclosed by an inner fosse (base Wth 2.2m; top Wth 2.7m; ext. D 0.3m), an earth and stone bank (base Wth 3.3m; top Wth 1m; ext. H 0.5-1m), a fosse (top Wth 2m; base Wth 1m; ext. D 0.3m) and an outer bank (base Wth 2.8m; top Wth 1.4m; ext. H 0.4m). A modern road intersects the outer bank at S on an E-W axis. The inner bank is very well preserved at NW where the top of the bank is higher then the internal mound and outer bank.
