Marlborough - Maerla's Burial place.. To return to mounds, when I was walking the Boyd river and trying to understand it, came across a mound, about 20 feet in height and covered in bushes.
Camera jammed at this point, but it was in a curve of the river, on flat land and by Wick court. If this area was an old manor site, and the Saxons are all round here, Wick (wic=dwelling place), and they defeated the British just down the road at Dyrham, it then makes this mound a possible saxon one... Could someone explain how a moot mound was used please?
