Full Description
One of a number of similar mounds in the vicinity (B-H centred TQ 744771) average about 15. 0m.by 10.0m and 1.0 m in height.
Evans was informed that the field to the NE, centred TQ 744772, was strewn with 'Roman potsherds' but none have been preserved, and none were found during field investigation.
The presence, nearby, of a Roman cremation group (see TQ 77 NW 4), and the finds of supposed Roman sherds, suggests that this was probably the site of a Roman Kiln; The association of kilns with burials is fairly common in this region.(see TQ 77 NW 1067).
