The monument includes a Bronze Age bowl barrow situated immediately to the north of the A 1305, within the grounds of the National Stud. The barrow mound is circular in plan with a rounded profile, measuring 16.5m in diameter and surviving to a height of approximately 0.8m. The mound is encircled by a ditch from which the material was quarried for its construction. This feature
