Full Description
SK 1742 7992: HAZELBADGE HALL, ROUND BARROW
[SK 17268001] Barrow, 200ft east of Hazelbadge Hall. (1,2).
Nothing of interest was seen at the siting of Authority 1 but at SK 1724 7992 is an almost perfect round barrow, completely of earth. There is no evidence of a ditch and the top of the mound is slightly hollowed, presumably from an early excavation. Surveyed at 1/2500. (3).
Bones were reputedly found during digging by workmen erecting overhead cables. (4).
Small round barrow located on a shelf on the valley side, above the steep dry valley. It was excavated in the 20th century by workmen who found bones. (6).
