Windmill Tump

Windmill Tump, also known as Rodmarton Chambered Tomb, is a Neolithic burial site, a stone tumulus or barrow.

[1] The site contains two tombs, behind the false entrance, with passageways to the north and south.

[1] Animal remains were also uncovered, including boar tusks, horse teeth, and calf jawbones.

[2] Two tombstones were unearthed in the first dig, and these are approximately 8 feet 6 inches (2.59 m) in height, and a third and larger stone was leaning against them, seemingly placed in that position.

[2] It was noted at the time that this specific arrangement was similar to cromlech mounds in Kilkenny, Ireland, and in Cornwall.
