John Ward, Esq., F.S.A., communicated the following account of some Barrows recently opened in the vicinity of Buxton, Derbyshire:-

During the past year, two barrows in the vicinity of this well-known Derbyshire town were opened, with the results of great interest, viz., Grinlow and Thirkel-low Frith, by Mr. Micah Salt, of that place, and his son, both of whom have rendered great service to local archaeology in their excavations in Deep Dale Cave. ... I have personally inspected Grinlow.
