Wormwood Hill tumulus, Stapleford

History of Wormwood Hill tumulus

Scheduled Monument

Wormwood Hill at Wandlebury was once thought to be a Bronze Age structure but the gales of 1987 uprooted trees revealing a natural hill, although it is possible that there was a burial mound in the crown of the hill; so far there is insufficient evidence to say what its purpose was. (Cambridge Past Present and Future)
