Grinsell suggests this is the same site as sx97nw/9 - an indentification that osa have also made. The stanbeorh of the 1044 anglo-saxon charter is more likely to be the barrow at sx92657734 (sx97nw/175). Grinsell refers to this barrow as ashcombe 2 or dawlish 1 although the latter is meant to be dawlish 2 (turner).
