Part of an ancient necropolis surveyed by Major Haswell. Long barrow (length 97 metres, width 16 metres, height maximum 3.5 metres, minimum 1.5metres), with a chamber. Due to the thorn thicket cover it is difficult to obtain the kist size, but it is approx.7 metres in width. No.2 on plan. This particular barrow forms part of a complex, together with barrows no.1 and 3 on the plan. Further information may be found in the parish file.
