Full Description
K136 (NL658992) Prominent green mound 1.3 m high, with many blocks of embedded stone and much rabbit disturbance, showing considerable soil depth and buried stonework. A relict boundary on the west kinks to follow the west edge of the mound, perhaps to utilize remains of existing wall. Appears to be the remains of a sizeable circular stone structure. Prehistoric roundhouse?
