Recorded monuments

• CL008-033 Barrow - bowl-barrow
  Description

  On top of a prominent hillock in undulating pastureland with wide views all around. Hachured on the 1842 and 1920 eds. of the OS 6-inch map, and named 'Moat' on the 1842 ed. and 'Mote' on the 1920. Listed as 'Barrow' in the RMP (1996). This bowl-barrow comprises a flat-topped steep-sided subcircular mound (base dims. 18.3m N-S; 12.6m E-W; diam. at top 3.3-3.6m; H over fosse 2.3-2.45m) enclosed by a flat-based and rush-covered fosse (av. Wth at base 3m; Wth at top 7.5m), and a round-topped outer bank (av. Wth 5.5m; int. H 1-1.85m; av. ext. H 0.3m), which is overgrown from N-SSW. At W some of the central mound has been eroded or dug away (Cunningham 1980, 13), revealing its earthen composition mixed with a few shale pebbles. Westropp (1915, 57) described a ‘berm’ (Wth 0.91-1.83m; H 0.91m) around the base of the central mound, and another (Wth 2.74m) on the inner face of the bank, neither of which were visible during an inspection in 1998. A field boundary extends NNW-SSE through the E part of the monument, crossing the bank and cutting through the fosse. There is a stepped barrow (CL008-034----) c. 126m to the ESE.

• CL008-034 Barrow - stepped barrow
  Description

  On the upper SSW-facing slope of an E-W ridge in pasture, with higher ground from NW-N but wide views in all other directions. Hachured and labelled 'Lislard' on the 1842 and 1920 eds. of the OS 6-inch map. Listed as 'Barrow' in the RMP (1996). This stepped barrow, the NE quadrant of which is overgrown by gorse, comprises a flat-topped circular mound (base diam. 7.7m; diam. at top 3.1-3.2m; H 0.95-1.1m) centrally located on an almost circular platform (base 18.7m N-S; 18.5m WNW-ESE; top 14.2-14.5m; H 1.15-1.35m), which is surrounded by a flat-based rush-covered fosse (Wth at base 2.5-3.5m; Wth at top 7.5m) and a steep-sided outer bank (base Wth 5.5-7.2m; int. H 1-1.35m; ext. H 0.5-1.1m). The latter is generally round-topped except from N-SE (Wth 3.2m) where a pathway runs on top of it. Traces of an outer fosse (Wth 6.6m; D 0.1) are evident from WNW-NW; it may continue from N-NE but dense gorse here hides the outer edge of the bank. There is a bowl-barrow (CL008-034----) c. 126m to the WNW, and a mound (CL008-035----) c. 212m to the ENE.
