Description
In 1964 W.J. Rodwell observed that the mound marked by the Ordnance Survey as a tumulus, south of Beeleigh Abbey, was suffering from heavy ploughing due to the recent removal of the hedgerow immediately to the north; the mound was previously in the corner of a field and less vulnerable to agricultural depredation.
