Hundland Hill

Round Barrow(s)

C

CARL Jul 18, 2012

Viewed from road 9.6.12

This Barrow is just about visible from the road as a very low mound covered in rough grass.
It would be easily missed if you weren’t specifically looking for it.

Canmore states:
‘The mound is 35ft in diameter and generally 3ft high, in a prominent position’.
