Summary

This was identified by L Grinsell in 1961, It measures 9m by 5.5m and lies in a field of permanent pasture. The stones are spread 15m east to west and 8m north to south, slightly below the crest of a hill, and these stones may perhaps be due to field clearance rather than the remains of a round barrow.
