Archaeology

A ditchless, grass-covered bowl barrow with a rather pointed top. It has a diameter of 14.0 metres and a height of 1.8 metres. Set in its lower slopes on the southeast side is an upright stone slab which is apparently modern and is drilled with 3 holes, measuring 0.8 metres high by 0.5 metres by 0.1 metre.


John Wesley is said to have preached from this mound.
