Notes

Radcliffe quotes Barrow Report 12: "Near by, to the north [of Wigford Down S, 5442 6442], stand two more circles, in one of which are what may be the remains of another kistvaen." Not found near the above grid reference. This probably refers to the cairns on the summit, at 5471 6494. [Probably a duplicate]
