Summary
The earthworks of a possible mound, feasibly relating to a Bronze Age round barrow, may be visible on the 0.5m resolution Lidar data. It must be noted that it is extremely ephemeral and may relate to a natural undulation. However, note its proximity numerous other barrows, for example the cemetery NHER 62020, and a dispersed cemetery landscape group (NHER 61484) in this area.
