The records for sites NHER 16994, 16895 and 16896, though almost identical, are correct. [1] confirms that in 1999 the three sites still sit on prominent, but probably natural mounds.

The mounds NHER 16894, 16895 and 16896 were examined on the available aerial photographs (S1-S5) and considered to be natural features. They have therefore not been mapped, however it is worth noting that on the 1946 vertical photographs (S2) the southern-most mound (NHER 16896) appears to have been partially excavated, with possible borrow pits visible around its southern edge, perhaps being used for extraction of sands and gravels. The area is shown as uncultivated rough ground on the Ordnance Survey 2nd edition map (S6), which may account for their survival.
