Large, tree covered round barrow, seen from the road when walking from Condicote Henge to Stow on the Wold. The barrow is situated on the south side of the picturesque Dikler valley, between the Trout Farm and Donnington Brewery. There are supposed to be two barrows here, but I could only make out one from the road.
Listed in "Gloucestershire Barrows" - H. O'Neil and LV Grinsell (1960 Transactions of the Bristol and Gloucestershire Arc. Soc.). They list two round barrows, the west one 20 paces in diameter and tree covered, the east 10 paces in diameter. The eastern barrow was only 6 inches high when they visited in 1955 and 1958 and I couldn't see it from across the valley.
