Full description

A subcircular cropmark, 10m across, possibly a plough-levelled mound, is visible as earthworks on vertical aerial photographs (p1), to the south-east of barrow 4666.05. This feature is considered likely to be a barrow and is probably one of the linear group of fifteen barrows, only three of which now survive (4666.03 - 4666.05).
