Image of Cregou Barrow (Round Barrow) by Mr Hamhead

Looking from downslope, the size of the barrow can not be appreciated. Hump on left with gorse bush atop does not look like it was part of original barrow.

Cregou Barrow

Round Barrow(s)

Mr Hamhead Oct 12, 2007

Described by EH as a bowl barrow, I though it was just a barrow that had been dug into. It measures about 35 metres across at its widest but is not that high. Although it now has a hedge behind it and a row of trees a little down slope of it I would guess that when it was built it had a commanding view down the valley to the Truro River.

Access is by a footpath from St Clement village or from Malpas village (where there is a very nice pub).
