Summary
The earthworks of a possible mound, feasibly relating to a Bronze Age round barrow, are visible on the 0.5m resolution Lidar data. This possible mound measures 12.5m across and is bisected by a track. It may relate to recent activity, but its proximity numerous other barrows such as NHER 61986 and the presence of a dispersed cemetery landscape group (NHER 61484) in this area supports the interpretation of a possible barrow.

The earthworks of a possible mound, feasibly relating to a Bronze Age round barrow, are visible on the 0.5m resolution Lidar data (S1). This possible mound, which measures 12.5m across and is bisected by a track, may however relate to recent activity. However, note its proximity numerous other barrows such as NHER 61986 and a dispersed cemetery landscape group (NHER 61484) in this area.
