Burl calls it Eordburgh-hlaw, meaning earthwork mound. He also calls it the Stonehenge of the North (how silly). Given its age, it has probably had plenty of names

Yeah I agree that the name of Eothburg Hlaw I used is probably wrong as it is what it is called in the guidebook for Arbor Low which I think is extremely dodgy anyway.I trust Burl more!!!!
