Situated close to the parish boundary, the mound marked as 'Heart's Delight' on historic maps may possibly be the 'Fowl's Barrow' referred to in a charter of 1042. Davidson states that Fowl's Barrow was near the ancient boundary, probably just above Bushy Park on the west. However, it is also possible that the site of Fowl's Barrow has now disappeared, there being a number of gravel pits and forestry plantations in the area.
