What is recorded here

In low-lying level wet pasture. Another ring-barrow (TS065-057002-) is located 4m to the SE. Originally circular, now a roughly D-shaped area (dims. 3.7m N-S; 4m E-W;) enclosed by a low earthen scarp (Wth 0.6m; H 0.05-0.10m) with a shallow external fosse (Wth at base 0.4m; overall Wth 0.8-1m; D 0.05-0.1m). The scarped edge and fosse are absent NW-NE where a ENE-WSW orientated silted-up field drain truncates the N edge of the barrow. The interior is level and clear of overgrowth.
