All that is left to see is a large, low grass mound.
Not worth going out of your way for.

HY21NE 12 at HY28001647 is a flat-topped turf-covered mound of earth & stones 25'D, a metre high but topped by a 5'D mound of almost the same height. A barrow-digger started work on the 'building' but was thankfully stopped byy the farmer.
