Summary : A circular enclosure circa 35 metres in diameter is visible as a cropmark on air photographs. A central pit is also visible, as are three other internal but possibly unrelated pits. It probably represents a levelled barrow, and is one of several funerary and hengiform monuments in the vicinity of the Barnack cursus (TF 00 NE 219).
More information : The following features were seen as cropmarks and have been mapped from good quality air photographs:- Probable Prehistoric or Roman round barrow, seen as a circular enclosure, diameter 35m, defined by 1 ditch with a central pit. Also within the enclosure were 3 further, possibly unrelated, pits. Centred at:-TF 0813 0664 (Morph No. LI.777.41.1) This barrow is in close proximity to a cursus and other related features and they could all form part of some kind of 'ritual complex' made up of features that are not necessarily contemporary.
