| Name: | Three Mounds east of Ashcombe Copse, Stockland |

Summary
Three roughly circular earthwork mounds are visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014. It is tempting to interpret them as prehistoric barrows, but there is no further evidence for them and interpretation is tentative.

Three roughly circular, although irregular, earthwork mounds from 11 to 16 metres across are visible on images derived from lidar data captured between 1998 and 2014. It is tempting to interpret them as prehistoric barrows, but they are not sited in a particularly imposing location and they are not visible on any other available imagery so interpretation is tentative.
