One of these is a ring-barrow, a type of funerary monument consisting of a low, circular earthen mound enclosed by a fosse, which is essentially a shallow ditch cut around its perimeter. What sets this site apart is less any individual monument than the sheer density of them: barrows, a tumulus, and two platforms arranged across a damp, unremarkable stretch of farmland that gives little outward sign of what lies within it.

The archaeologist M.J. O'Kelly documented the complex in 1944, and his account remains the most detailed record of what is here. Writing in that year, he noted that eight of the barrows and two platforms occupy one field, with a tumulus tucked into the nearest corner of the field to the east, and a ninth barrow sitting in the corner of the field to the north. The road runs immediately to the west of all of them, and a sand-pit lies just beyond that. O'Kelly observed that all the barrows share the same method of construction, built as very slight circular mounds surrounded by fosses and lacking any outer bank, though their diameters range considerably, from around 4.5 metres up to roughly 11 metres. He noted no particular arrangement among them in the field, which is itself quietly interesting; whatever logic governed their placement, if any, is no longer legible.

The site sits in what O'Kelly described as a low-land marsh meadow, and the ground conditions are likely to be soft underfoot, particularly in wetter months. The road to the west provides the clearest orientation point for approaching the fields. Because the mounds are described as very slight, they are easy to miss without some patience and a low angle of light, so visiting in the morning or late afternoon, when shadows deepen across gentle undulations in the ground, gives the best chance of actually seeing them. The platforms mentioned alongside the barrows are less commonly encountered monument types, and their presence here adds another layer of complexity to a site that, from a distance, looks like nothing more than a few quiet fields beside a country road.
