At SU 37530461: The feature described by source 1 is an amorphous mound, c16m in diameter and c1m high, in a prominent position on the end of a spur. It could well represent a denuded round barrow.
At SU 37530463: The additional barrow, discovered by source 3, lies in a ridge-top position approximately 30m north-east of the previous barrow. It appears as a similar, though less prominent, amorphous mound, c12m in diameter and c0.6m high. (4)
