If you have walked to the shy and retiring Craddock Moor Stone Circle it is only an extension of c. 500 yards WSW towards a low mound on the horizon to reach Craddock Moor E Barrow. The round mound measures c. 17 yards across and 1 yard high. The fern-covered mound is studded with small protruding stones. Craddock Moor W Barrow, which is located c. 40 yards W, measures c. 20 yards across. It consists of a central mound c. 8 yards across and 1 yard high surrounded by a circular stony bank up to 0.5 yard high.
