Abstract: |
The Park Head Barrow on the cliff top at Lower Butter Cove was excavated as part of the 'Unlocking Our Coastal Heritage' project. This established that a clay mound was constructed directly onto a buried soil horizon and subsequently burnt. Later a further covering of soil and rubble material, enclosed within a stone kerb wall, was added to the mound. A small assemblage of Bronze Age flints was recovered, but unfortunately none from secure contexts. The surviving portion of the barrow was extremely disturbed by rabbit burrowing. |
