This report describes the excavation in 1977 of a square-ditched barrow probably dating from the first or second century AD, together with the damaged remains of a second square-ditched barrow, a crescentic feature (possibly the very damaged remains of a ring-ditch or ring-ditch house), and a circular enclosure, possibly of Neo date and measuring 18cm in diameter. A burial accompanied by a Beaker was recovered from the quarry shortly after the main excavation. There is a note on the `Radiocarbon dates' by Patrick J Ashmore (376 & 377) and an `Appendix 1: the Beaker burial' by Lisbeth M Thoms (381--3) which includes notes on `The Beaker' by Ian A G Shepherd (382--3) and `The skeletal remains' by Mary Harman (383).
