Monument record BRD 310 - Possible small mound of unknown date

Please read our .

Summary

What appears to be a small, sub-circular mound, of unknown date and archaeological significance, is visible as an earthwork on imagery from a lidar survey flown in 2015. It is rather small for a Bronze Age round barrow, although this interpretation remains a possibility. It lies in an area of uneven ground, and could instead be of natural origin, or the product of recent ground disturbance or forestry activity.
