[8a.] (1) Apparently a twin barrow, the westernmost of the 3 barrows 

 in line at W. end of plantation, opened by Rev. W. C. Lukis 

 1855, had been opened before, fragments of urns, &c, scattered 

 throughout the larger mound, with ashes. In the smaller mound 

 charcoal only. W.A.M. x. 90. 



[8b.] (2) Low barrow, almost ploughed down, to W. of plantation, 

 opened by Rev. W. C. Lukis 1855. Nothing found. W.A.M. 

 x. 90. 



[8c] (3) Low barrow, almost ploughed down/to-W. of plantation, 

 opened by Rev. W. C. Lukis 1855. In centre contracted skeleton

 W.A.M. x. 90. 



9. (4) The westernmost of the 3 in the plantation, opened by Rev. 

 W. C. Lukis 1855 and 1861. In grave in centre a contracted 

 skeleton with no right arm and no hands, covered oyer with large 

 flints over which vegetable mould and turf had originally been 

 heaped up making a barrow with a diameter of about 70ft. Sub- 

 sequently other secondary interments were added and the barrow 

 enlarged to 96ft. in diam. These secondary interments on the 

 S.E. side of the barrow were (1) burnt bones ; (2) large urn in- 

 verted over burnt bones, with dry walling of large flints built up 

 round it ; (3) burnt bones ; (4) smaller urn containing burnt bones 

 lying on its side surrounded by flints. 8 other separate inter- 

 ments of burnt bones were found, in each case within a circle of 

 flints. Two flint mullers and part of a flat grinding stone were 

 found. Another urn with burnt bones found later. Devizes
