| Summary : The site of a Bronze Age bowl barrow, which has been ploughed level. The round barrow continues the alignment of the Winterbourne Stoke Crossroads round barrow cemetery circa 100m to the south-west (Monument Number 219525). It is perhaps one of two small barrows Hoare had opened near here (1812) and was excavated by Thurnam in the mid-19th century, who found a late Bronze Age bucket urn and a cremation. The barrow was listed as Winterbourne Stoke 22 by Goddard (1914) and Grinsell (1957). There is no surface trace of the barrow, and no positive aerial photographic evidence. |

This location falls within the area mapped from aerial photographs by both RCHME's Salisbury Plain Training Area NMP and EH's Stonehenge WHS Mapping Project, but no further information about this feature could be obtained from aerial photographic evidence. A number of roughly circular marks are visible on photographs covering this area, but none can be confidently identified as this round barrow. (6) |
