This Bronze Age tumulus was trenched by R Close in 1956. The inner and outer of the three courses of kerb stones are on edge. To the SW of the centre of the tumulus a cist, 4ft 6ins, was found on a 3ft deep clay floor. Other finds included cremation remnants, bone fragments and broken shards of a possible urn. A boundary stone occupies the summit.
