Part of a possible Bronze Age round barrow and an elongated pit which may be an Anglo Saxon (early
medieval) grave are visible as cropmarks on air photographs. The possible grave lies to the south-east
of the ring ditch and may be an outlier of the extensive cemetery to the south.The round barrow, presenting as an incomplete ring ditch, lies at a slight bend on Haine Road. The road appears to have truncated the western side of the ring ditch. (1)
