Full Description

September 2015. Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty National Mapping Programme.
Two possible round barrows are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs (S1)-(S2) to the west of scheduled barrow cemetery SHER STT 064 north of Shottisham.
A Bronze Age date has tentatively been suggested in the light of their apparent relationship with the barrow cemetery recorded as SHER STT 064. An excavation in this area revealed a single undated ditch (SHER STT 060).
E. Ford (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 24th September 2015.
