This is a large long barrow in the small village of Chettle. It is to the south east of another long barrow which O.S. calls Chettle long barrow.
This one is about a hundred metres long and about 3 - 4 metres high. It looks to be in good condition, but once on top of it's northern end there is a large hole, which appears to be damage done in an old excavation. I will visit the other one in the near future, I ran out of time today.
