Description: | PRN 41713
A PROBABLE MILL MOUND, FLAT TOPPED AND STANDING ON A KNOLL. IT APPEARS TO BE CONTEMPORARY WITH THE WATER COURSES ASSOCIATED WITH NORTHOLME MANOR HOUSE. THE MOUND HAS ALSO BEEN USED FOR COCK FIGHTING. {1}{2}
This tumulus, which is given added drama by the pines on its summit, is a feature of views from the road and footpaths which cross the parkland. It is known as Green Hill and its origins are unknown - it may be a Roman beacon, a burial mound, the base of a post-mill or simply a garden feature from the earlier house (see PRN 41712). {3} | Subjects: | General Archaeology Windmills | Temporal: | 1066 - 1539 | Source: | Lincolnshire County Council | Identifier: | http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/Re... | Go to resource |
