The Beacon - possible barrow cemetery

Barrow Cemetery

Fieldnotes

Leskernick area - Possible barrow cemetery on The Beacon - 3.4.2003

Just 100m or so down from the probable kerbed cairn (i.e. towards the craggy outcrop) there is a possible barrow cemetery. Lots of circular mounds with severly denuded middles (look like little craters basically). If it is natural it’s quite a sight! I could see 11 possible barrows. I’ve done my best to draw what I saw.
