A prehistoric cairn, centred at SS 8019 4397, on west facing slopes on Manor Allotment. It comprises a turf-covered, stony mound 9.7 m in diameter and 0.6 m high. A swathe of disturbance is visible running across the centre of the cairn, and this has probably been caused by military activity during World War Two. Found during field reconnaissance.
