Scheduled Ancient Monument: SIX BOWL BARROWS IN KNIGHT'S WOOD, 500M SOUTH-EAST OF WHITE HOUSE FARM: PART OF SEVEN HILLS BARROW CEMETERY (21281)

The monument includes a group of six bowl barrows clustered within Seven Hills barrow cemetery, situated in a narrow belt of woodland between the A1156, to the north, and the Ipswich-Felixstowe railway line, to the south. The barrows are visible as earthen mounds, the largest of which covers a circular area 31m in diameter and stands to a height of 1.2m. This is the most northerly of the group. The smallest, located 34m west of the first, measures 0.4m in height and is recorded as having covered an area c.11m in diameter, although the part which remains upstanding now has a maximum diameter of 5m. South-west of this, at a distance of 11m, is the third mound, which measures 1.4m in height and 22m in diameter and which is in alignment with a further two, sited to the south-east of it at intervals of 20m and 18m respectively. The middle mound of this alignment is clipped on the south-western edge by the fence bordering the railway line. It stands to a height of 0.75m and covers a sub-circular area with a maximum diameter of 20m. The easternmost mound, which is similarly truncated on the south-western edge by the boundary of the railway line, measures 15m north-east to south-west by c.12m north-east to south-west and stands to a height of 0.7m. The sixth mound lies 35m east of this, on the eastern side of the group as a whole, and measures c.27m in diameter and 0.5m in height. The barrows occupy an area with maximum dimensions of 155m northwest to south-east and 80m north-east to south-west.
