Newton Down Farm

Round Barrow(s)

Fieldnotes

Visited 23.11.12

Directions:
Take the A30 east out of Stockbridge until you come to the junction with the A272.
Take the turning north (on the left) and the Barrows are in the small copse of trees on the left immediately past the farm drive.

I’m not having much luck today – either the Barrows I am looking for have been ploughed out or, as in this case, I can’t get to see them!

The problem is a 10ft high hedgerow which is so impenetrable that not only was there no way to get through it but I couldn’t even see through it.
Not sure how much you would be able to see as the Barrows could well be hidden by trees?

E.H. have nothing to say on the matter.
