Details This monument includes a bowl barrow situated on the eastern side of Kipscombe Hill overlooking the valley of a tributary to the East Lyn River. The barrow survives as circular mound measuring up to 14m in diameter and 1.2m high. The surrounding quarry ditch from which material to construct the mound was derived survives as a partially buried feature up to 1.3m wide and 0.2m deep. There is an excavation hollow on the summit of the mound which is likely to mark the position of antiquarian investigation of the barrow although no details are known.
