The second about 100 yards north-west on a 'knowe' 12 feet in diameter, set round with stones. Within were a cist and an urn with chevron ornament, but broken. Another, east of Plainfield, in a field called the Bank - a low cairn with a broken urn. (1)

(Listed under 'Urns known from literature only' and as 'Destroyed'). (3)

The owner-farmer of Plainfield who has lived there for 20 years has never heard reference to a field by the name of the Bank (Authority 1 refers), and has not seen any barrow in the vicinity. He added that all the fields at Plainfield have regularly been under the plough in recent years.
In a perambulation, no traces of any cairns were found. The present location of the cists found is not known. (4)

Three cinerary urns from Plainfield (as (1) above). Now lost. (5)
