Full description
S + M. R., 1978, Untitled Source (Worksheet). SDV129928.
Low mound in grass field. Estimated diameter 10 metres. Possibly a ploughed-out barrow. The field has been recently levelled with a bulldozer. Mr Arthur Salter of Cole Hill, Luppitt, believes it to contain twelve burials arranged in formation. He also believes the burials to be at a depth of about 4 metres. Mr Salter is a diviner, and 'discovered' this site using divining methods.
