OS 6" map, (1938)

Lusy Law: A small artificial hillock composed of earth and stones. It has not been opened, but there is no doubt of it being a tumulus.

Name Book 1867.

A low mutilated mound of earth and small stones now covered with grass with several trees growing upon it. It measures c.13.0m diameter by c.1.0m high and has a very small depression on top. No large stones

were seen, and to all appearances the mound has not been opened.

Visited by OS (WDJ) 2 October 1961.

Cairn as described above. Name still known locally.

Visited by OS (NKB) 1 February 1968.
