Full Description
July 2017. 'Brecks from Above' and Breckland National Mapping Programme.
An undated mound is visible as an earthwork on imagery from a lidar survey flown in 2015 (S1). It could feasibly represent the remains of a Bronze Age round barrow, although other interpretations are equally plausible. A number of other barrows have been recorded in the area, such as SHER STN 043 40m to the south.
