No longer that upstanding, but quite obviously the remains of a large cairn...

Historic England (List Entry Number: 1007695) states the following:

“The monument includes the remains of a bowl barrow situated on the highest point of Bodbury Hill. The barrow is visible as a low, flat topped mound 12m in diameter, of earth and stone construction. The top of the mound is irregular and disturbed, probably as a result of exploration at some time in the past. Although no longer visible at ground level, a ditch, from which material was quarried during the construction of the monument, surrounds the mound. This has become infilled over the years but will survive as a buried feature some 2m wide.”
