A 4.5m high oval mound in which a four sided chamber was found when tunnelled into by excavators in 1911. The cist was found to contain an un-usual burial, that of a man lying on top of a horse. Other reported finds included a round bottomed vessel and fragment of a greenstone axe, none of the finds can now be identified. In 2003 one of the horse's teeth was radio-carbon dated to between 60 BC and 50 AD. |
