A prehistoric burial mound still standing to a height of at least 2 metres. It is thought that this has never been ploughed, or disturbed by excavation in the past. It is very prominent in the local landscape and is faced directly by the rear of Hatcliffe Manor. The barrow may thus have formed a deliberate landscape focus for the manor house, acting as a backdrop to the original gardens to the rear of the house.
