MSO6283 - Bronze Age burial cairn and two clearance mounds southeast of Dunkery Hill (Monument)

A small cairn lies on the southeastern slope of Dunkery Hill at SS 91626 42292. It comprises a circular mound of earth and stones 5.5 metres in diameter and 0.6 metres high. Two clearance mounds close to this cairn at SS 91659 42268 and SS 91676 42332 are probably associated with the field system described under MMO2679. The monuments were surveyed using differential GPS as part of the RCHME Exmoor Project. [1] The cairn could not be distinguished from the spurious clearance mounds in the vicinity, and could not be confirmed as a prehistoric cairn. [2] This record was enhanced as part of the National Record of the Historic Environment to Exmoor National Park Historic Environment Record data transfer project. [3]
