The site of what was probably a Bronze Age round barrow is surmounted by a boundary stone. However whether the rise in the ground at the edge of a sandstone quarry on which it stands is the remains of the barrow or just quarry spoil is undetermined and the barrow itself may no longer be extant, destroyed by quarrying. It is one of a line of barrows that run roughly alongside the ancient trod known as the Quakers Causeway and then follow the modern road towards Castleton.
