Cropmarks of an elongated slightly wedge-shaped ditched enclosure with convex ends, seen on aerial photographs of 1979. There are traces of internal features, and what appear to be wide ditches flanking each of the longer sides. {1} The feature has been scheduled as the buried remains of a Neolithic long barrow, located below the summit of a plateau overlooking the valley of the River Bain to the west, c.300m south-east of Flint Hill House. While the monument cannot be seen on the ground, it has been recorded as a cropmark on aerial photographs. The cropmark represents an elongated, slightly wedge-shaped mound which had been degraded by ploughing. It is aligned north-west to south-east, approximately 50m by 22m. Material for the mound would have been quarried from an encircling ditch which is now infilled. The north-western end of the ditch is slightly convex while the narrower, south-eastern end is broken by a causeway. A thickening of the plan of the ditches in the longer sides is thought to indicate recutting, suggesting that the long barrow remained a focus of attention over a long period of time. The form of ditch is thought to represent a more elaborate type of long barrow which may have been constructed for a particular group or class within Neolithic society. The monument is one of a number of long barrows associated with the valley of the River Bain and with a prehistoric trackway, the course of which runs some 250m to the south-west, overlain by Roman and modern roads. For the full details, see the scheduling document 27890. {2} The interpretation of this feature as a long barrow has been questioned by Dilwyn Jones on the basis of further aerial photographic evidence. {3}
