A beautifully preserved Round Barrow can be seen from the road. It still retains much of it's height and has a clearly defined ditch around it's base.

More barrows exist is the woods, but as we were short of time, we didn't bother to check on accesibilty.

If you look at http://www.eaareports.demon.co.uk/index.html there is a publication that includes the Weasenham group of barrows.

If you get no luck please do get back to me as I am the village historian for the two Weasenhams and my parents still live in Weasenham Saint Peter.
