SU2580 : Tumulus on Hinton Downs
taken 10 years ago, 4 km NW of Baydon, Wiltshire, England
Tumulus on Hinton Downs
Bronze Age tumulus Link
(Archive Link ) beside the bridleway on Hinton Downs. The tumulus was opened in 1889, and contained a primary cremation in an oval grave with a dagger, and an intrusive Saxon inhumation Link (Archive Link ) with a spearhead and a large shale bead. It is now riddled with badger holes and is in a very poor condition.
