Additional Description:
[on Structure Marker inside Great Mound]

A "grange" or farm settlement was established by the Cisterican monks on the summit of the mound. As a result of the reformation and the associated changes in political and religious conditions the grange was abandoned. The mound was no longer used, but there has been continuous settlement in the surrounding area up to the present.
