Cobhill Barrow

Hob Uid: 223519
Location :
Wiltshire
Winterslow
Grid Ref : SU2349033270
Summary : The remains of a Bronze Age bowl barrow.
More information : (SU 23483329) Cobhill Barrow (NR). (1)

A mutilated bowl barrow, Winterslow 25, 18 paces x 15 paces x 4
ft high; traces of a slight ditch. Considered by P F Ewence
probably to have been used as a siting point for a change in
the angle of the Roman road (RR 45a). (2)

A badly mutilated 0.7m high mound is all that remains of this
barrow. Ewence's contention would seem to be suspect as neither
the eastern nor western alignment of the Roman Road intersects
the barrow. (3)
