Hand auger survey across the Scheduled mound (SM 823) was carried out as part of a programme of evaluation work carried out on the site (geophysical survey, trial trenching, environmental sampling) under class consent in connnection with proposals for housing development in the area. The auger survey suggested that the mound may be largely natural (fluvioglacial) in origin.
