Wyck Beacon
Round Barrow(s)

This round barrow still stands about 2.5m high, perched on top of the hill. Today it apparently sports a triangulation pillar.

Grinsell and O’Neil’s research for the 1960 ‘Gloucestershire Barrows’ found that it was considered to be the grave of a famous highwayman from Westcote village. Perhaps you know more?
