There are at least forty-four barrows in this Bronze Age cemetery. The barrows of many types, sizes and date, straddle the A35, Bridport to Dorchester road, at the bottom of the picture. A disk barrow can be seen on the left hand corner in the foreground. Most of the barrows have been disturbed, very few properly excavated and some are entirely ploughed out, only to be seen as occasional soil or crop marks. The very large ditched barrow in the centre foreground is 40.2m in diameter and 3.7m high.
