Description

The monument includes a bowl barrow within Levington Heath barrow cemetery, situated on level ground 100m south east of the parish boundary between Levington and Bucklesham, which lies to the north. It is visible as a low earthen mound and is marked, also, by a light coloured sandy patch in the ploughsoil. In 1959, when it was already under cultivation, the mound was recorded as measuring approximately 0.9m in height and 25m in diameter. Since then it has been reduced by ploughing, and now stands to a height of approximately 0.3m and covers a circular area approximately 22m in diameter.
