^{page 122 note 4} But much of the land in East Kent is still park and downland; and the early antiquaries were more concerned with the spoliation of Saxon graves than with flint implements.

^{page 125 note 2} A heap of the debris on the floor of the pit is cut into by the garden of the present cottage, and probably the primary burial from the barrow is down there as well.

^{page 125 note 3} The ‘three curious transverse grooves’ mentioned by Petrie, (Arch. Cant. xii (1880), 11Google Scholar) cannot now be identified.

^{page 125 note 4} This suggestion I owe to Mr. Charles Hardy, whose family owned the estate from 1861 to 1918; it is known that the Wildmans did make a trench right across the mound but its site was never recorded.

^{page 127 note 2} Mr. L. V. Grinsell has recently called attention to a similar feature at Fernworthy on Dartmoor (The Ancient Burial Mounds of England (1936), 99).

^{page 127 note 3} An interesting feature, noted by Dr. Brade-Birks, is the great preponderance of non-local spongy flint.

^{page 128 note 1} Similar pits have been found under other long barrows, but usually in the original ground-surface, e.g. at Therfield Heath and Giants' Hills, Skendleby.

^{page 129 note 1} Auger tests made by Dr. Brade-Birks show that there is still practically no surface material 30 ft. from the mound; this accounts for the exceptionally poor covering of grass.

^{page 129 note 3} The outer lip of the ditch had been mutilated by ploughing.

^{page 131 note 1} But at Thickthorn barrow the incrustation was confined to the less patinated flints in the lower levels of the ditch (Proc. Prehist. Soc. for 1936, 89).
