Tump is an alternative name for a circular bowl barrow burial mound, or a small hill in the middle of a village green. However this one, in the new township of Hampton Hargate on the southern outskirts of Peterborough, is a modern man-made mound. This is the view from Four Chimneys Crescent, the name reflecting the area's previous use as a brickworks.
