A barrow and a secondary outer ring ditch, visible as cropmarks in the Google Earth image of 2007.
A central regular ring ditch of 23m in diameter with an irregular outer ring ditch of c.35m. This possibly represents an original ditched barrow with a later additional ring ditch added. Probably an initial Bronze Age barrow which became the focus of a later Saxon cemetery (TR 25 SE 110). (1)
