Description
A round barrow (visible back right) adjacent the site of 50 plus Viking executions at the hands of Anglo Saxons in a disused Roman quarry on the east side of the Roman Road from Weymouth to Dorchester - now the Weymouth Relief Road. Considerate parking near the bridge over the A354 to the west of Bincombe Down. Interpretation panels for the barrows and Viking executions a short walk through a gate. The barrow particularly good to view from the south west side.
