4to., with a frontispiece, 3 plates on 2 and 6 full-page illustrations in the text; wrappers, sewed as issued, a very good copy.
One of the (apparently) many copies bound without the five location maps at end, a shortcoming largely overcome by exhaustively detailed descriptions including, in most cases, full national grid references. One of the several county catalogues compiled by the author following publication of his general study 'Ancient Burial-Mounds of England' (2nd edition, 1953). The analytical text is followed by a catalogue of Bell, Bowl, Disc and Pond Barrows, among others.
