Monument Number 195094

Hob Uid: 195094
Location :
North Somerset
Wrington
Grid Ref : ST4995063600
Summary : A Neolithic long barrow, part of the mound has been spread by ploughing
More information : [ST 4995 6360] Long Barrow [G.T.]. (1)

A long barrow - T 31 - oriented E-W, and 154 feet long. The wider
and higher end is at the east and is 45-50 feet wide and 3-3 1/2
feet high. Some large stones are visible and a hedge crosses the
mound 20 feet from the west end. Both ends are rounded but there
are no traces of a surrounding ditch. There is no local name for
the barrow or the field. (2-3)

This feature appears to be a long barrow, 1.4m high at the east
end and 0.3m at the west. Its east end has been planted with trees
and used as a dump for stones from field clearance. The rest of
the mound has been spread by ploughing. No stones can be seen that
appear to be an integral part of the structure.
Surveyed at 1: 2,500. (4)
