Notes

Second of two ruined cists on Cosdon Hill. Ward Lock refers to "a triple row with remains of two kistvaens" lower down from Cosdon summit, so presumably this is the same as SMR SX 69 SW/19? THE HER grid reference for this is almost 1km out. The grid reference given is SX 63630 91370 which is centered on Cosdon Hill as a geographical entity. THis entry clearly relates to the cairn and cist at the end of the stone row so we will give it a grid reference of SX 64330 91600.

Confirmed duplicate - no action required on HER. Removing from PDW Guide listing.
