Location : County of Herefordshire Eardisley
Grid Ref : SO3025052660
Summary : U Mound
More information : A small mound, close to Bollingham Chapel (SO 3052), which is surmounted by a building, the upper part of which is used as a pigeon-house, may be a tumulus, or more probably, from its situation, a small castle mound. (Not listed by RCHM). (1) SO 30255266: an oval shaped mound, much reduced and spread by ploughing, measures 19.0 m in diameter NNE-SSW by 12.0 m transversely and has a maximum height of 0.4 m. It would seem to have been too small for a motte, and there is no local knowledge of the mound having once supported a building. Surveyed at 1:2500. (2)
