Description
The monument includes a bowl barrow, located on a gentle, north facing slope to the south of the Little Ouse River. The barrow is visible as an earthen mound, standing to a height of approximately 1.5m and which has a diameter of 32m. It is thought that the mound is encircled by a ditch from which earth was quarried during the construction of the barrow, and although this has now become completely infilled and is no longer visible, it will survive as a buried feature approximately 3m wide.
