There’s not a lot left of this barrow. A low mound measuring about 10x11m in diameter.
When Bateman excavated here in the 1850’s he discovered a limestone cist divided into 2 compartments. One contained the mixed bones of 12 people as well as burnt wood and bone, animal bones, potsherds and a flint knife/spear head.
The other compartment held the crouched skeleton of a woman, along with flint artefacts.
It’s thought the burial mound dates to the late Neolithic.
