Sadly, this cluster of seven round barrows have been destroyed in the process of gravel extraction.
They were excavated prior to destruction, with six satellite barrows providing little of interest.
However, the largest barrow proved to be rather extraordinary, producing a massive amount of cattle bones. Further details can be found on the link below.
