ND06SW 22 0364 6005.

There is a grass-covered circular mound, 0.7m high, situated at ND 0364 6005 in a pasture field. Its regular shape and profile would seem to indicate a cairn, although no stones are visible and no finds have been made.

Surveyed at 1:2500.

Visited by OS (N K B) 11 November 1964.

(ND 0364 6005) Mound (NR)

OS 1;10,000 map (1975)

The mound survives as a low amorphous rise merging with the surrounding natural ground level; its turf cover is indistinguishable from the vegetation that surrounds it. It cannot be classified. (The site of a cairn where human remains were found - ND06SW 17 - is only about 40m to the SE, and may have been a mis-plot of this feature.)

Visited by OS (N K B) 24 November 1981.
