TR 206488. Ploughed out barrow. (1) The site lies on a western slope of Breach Downs. The ground is now under young spring wheat and there is nothing visible on the ground, nor are there any signs of a barrow on available air photographs. (2) Additional bibliography. (3)
Visible on the 2007 Google Earth image as a ring ditch. Presumably this is related to the barrow cemetery 100m to the north. (4)
