This barrow is immediately north of the Poor Lot barrow cemetery. Magic says it is 23m across and just under a metre high. It is dwarfed by the horrible pylon behind it and was not easy to photograph, I had to stand in the boot of my car to see over the hedge! formicaant Posted by formicaant

This Barrow is easily seen when driving south along the minor road towards the Poor Lot Barrow cemetery.

It appears to be approximately 15 metres across x 0.5 metre high.
