Full description
One of an east-west alignment of three barrows which includes Tichbarrow at its eastern end. The two westerly barrows are set close together below the crest of a gentle south-east slope. This, the westernmost of the group is a bowl barrow, 18m (60ft) in diameter and 0.6m (2ft) in height. It is considerably reduced by ploughing (b2).
This barrow is not marked on OS maps, and is not referred to by the OS. The monument is included in the Schedule. The Scheduling notification has previously been wrongly attributed to 103914 - two mounds which are thought likely to be quarry spoil heaps (APJ).
