Redhill Farm visited 30.3.13

Directions:
A short distance west of the B3114 / B3139 junction, North West of Binegar.

A public right of way runs past the Barrow which was easily spotted as a ‘rough grass mound’.

E.H. state:
‘A mound 30m in diameter and 1.8m high with a gently sloping profile. Situated on a south facing slope, immediately below the crest of a hill 205m south east of Redhill Farm’.

Blackwell Tyning ‘Drive by’ 30.3.13

Directions:
A short distance west of the B3114 / B3139 junction, North West of Binegar.
South of Redhill Farm Barrow.

A public right of way runs past the Barrow.

I forgot to make any notes on this Barrow so we will have to rely on what EH has to say!

E.H. state:
‘A bell barrow situated on level ground south of Blackwell Tyning Plantation. The barrow is a steep sided mound, 32m in diameter and 2.5m high, surrounded by a berm or platform 4m wide. Surrounding the berm is a ditch 3m wide which has become infilled over the years and no longer visible at ground level’.
