The monument includes two contiguous bowl barrows within Seven Hills barrow
cemetery, adjacent to and overlooking the A45 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 in a south-east to northwest
alignment, the first standing to a height of 1.2m and the second to a
height of 1.6m, covering overlapping circular areas which measure c.22m and
26m in diameter respectively. The combined length of the two barrows on the
south-east to north-west axis is c.46m. They lie c.40m north-west of the most
densely clustered group of barrows in the cemetery.
