The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Round barrow, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE). Such barrows were typically used as burial monuments and represent some of the earliest forms of ceremonial earthworks in the landscape.
