Title:
Originator:NMR CITING OS
Date:
Summary:Vis=1/10/1978 (os) at sx61657830 on the flat ridge between longford tor and higher white tor is a prominent swelling of the ground, approximately 40m in diameter and 1.5m in height, which at a distance has the appearance of a large spread barrow, especially as it occupies a 'false crest' position. Close inspection failed to reveal any stones or irregularities in the ground, and its size and gradual merging with the hillside suggests that it is natural (nmr citing os).
