Baldwin Burial Mound
Archaeology
The site of a probable Bronze Age barrow, one of three ditchless grass covered bowl barrows on land falling to the west, with a stone cairn also within the group. This mound is surmounted by an old hedge bank across its northern side, north of which it has been ploughed out. Its diameter is 11.0 metres and a minimum height 0.5 metres.
Five shieling mounds are indicated at this position on Gelling's distribution map, but more recent works suggests this to be a barrow group.
