Description
The monument, which includes a bowl barrow, is located immediately to the north west of Shootinglodge Plantation. The barrow is visible as a low earthen mound, which stands to a height of approximately 0.2m. The barrow mound is roughly circular area with a maximum diameter of about 30m.The barrow has been spread by cultivation over the years. 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 below the spread of the mound.
