- TS059-158 Barrow - ring-barrow
Description
In wet pasture, on a W-facing slope. Monument identified during ASI fieldwork. A low profile, circular area (dims. 4.5m NNE-SSW; 4m ESE-WNW) defined by a fosse (Wth 2m; D 0.05-0.1m) and outer bank (Wth 3.3m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 0.05m) which is traceable from W-NW and NE-SE. There is a deep pocket of erosion at the N possibly caused by livestock. The fosse and outer bank have been truncated by a land drain (long axis WNW-ESE) across the SW sector.
