A circular mound with a surrounding ditch beyond the south western end of the row has been identified as a barrow. Given its location this interpretation is attractive, but the possibility of it being a peat stack cannot be entirely dismissed. On balance however, particularly given the lack of any others in the vicinity the barrow interpretation seems the most probable. View from east (Scale 1m).
