My Grandfather (a Bredon man) always told the tale of soldiers corpses from the civil war being buried under 'Whittington Tump' (Crookbarrow Hill). It has never been excavated to my knowledge, but there are many flint finds.
*************
There is some dispute whether or not the hill is natural or man-made, and if man-made, to what degree.
