Recorded monuments
- WM036-048 Barrow - unclassified
Description
Situated on flat poorly drained land with drainage channels traversing the field. Outline of circular shaped area (approx. int. diam. 40m; overall ext. diam. 60m) defined by a fosse, earthen bank and external fosse visible on Digital Globe aerial imagery. The W quadrant of the monument has been intersected by a post-1700 field boundary running N-S. Earlier OSI aerial photography shows the outline of this monument to the W of the field boundary. The poorly drained land suggests that this may be the remains of a possible barrow although due to the large size of the monument it could be the remains of a ringfort of a raised platform nature.
