More information : [TF 50105932] Tumulus [O.E.] (1) The Tumulus at Croft, stands on a knoll. Slightly flattened, and now railed in, the mound is 18 paces across and 7ft. high. It has been used for cock-fighting. Still in good condition. Slopes approximately 8ft. (2-3) This is probably a mill-mound. It is flat-topped, sharply profiled, and is adjacent to, and appears contemporary with, two ditches or water-courses, which are possibly associated with Northolme Manor House (see TF 55 NW 4 ) 1/2500 survey revised. See TF 55 NW 4. (4)
