Full Description
Part of a barrow cemetery. In 1981 the Ordnance Survey recorded it as an earthwork mound 14 metres in diameter and 0.5 metres high. The Ordnance Survey field investigator added "no visible ditch". No previous source refers to one for this barrow, suggesting that the entry in Grinsell may have been misread - Grinsell noted a slight ditch for Winterborne St Martin 3 (SY 69 SW 95). <1> <3>
