Full Description
28 December 2003. In land formerly conifer plantation, destumped in the 1980s and now rough grass.
Mound, roughly circular, diameter 40m west to east and 35m north to south, height 1m to 1.5m.
There is a pit around 20m to west, but the mound is most unlikely to be upcast therefrom, because none of the several other pits in the vicinity has such upcast mounds.
A. Rogerson (NLA), 6 January 2004.
