Description
The monument includes a bowl barrow within Levington barrow cemetery, situated
on level ground 100m north north west of the junction between the parish
boundaries of Levington, to the west, Bucklesham to the north and east, and
Stratton Hall to the south. The barrow is visible as a low earthen mound
standing to a height of approximately 0.4m and covering a circular area
approximately 22m in diameter. The mound is surrounded by a ditch
approximately 3m wide from which earth was dug during construction of the
barrow. This ditch has become completely infilled, but it survives as a buried
feature, evidence of which has been recorded by means of aerial photography.
