no.
It's a boundary earthwork according to Josh pollard.
I noticed it this spring and walked up to it.
It looks like 2 barrows together from the side looking down on it.
From the air it looks like a small long barrow.
as usual no one has investigated it yet,

Will let Moth and VJ witter away together in their own happy little world of make-well and make-believe ;-). But thanks Pete, that's interesting. Are you sure, however, that Faulkener's Barrow (to coin a phrase) might not be just that (a badly eroded long barrow?) - it's position is interesting in relation to East and West Kennet (and the two round barrows further up) and almost mirror what's happening over at East and West Kennet.
