Passed on 22.6.2006 as part of a walk from Troon via Hangmans Barrow, Nine Maidens, Calvadnack, etc. The barrows are very ploughed down but are visible on the top of hill to the south-east of Four Lanes. There are in fact three barrows, but I could only see two from the road (see pictures). thesweetcheat Posted by thesweetcheat
