What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Bell barrow on Horsell Common immediately east of Monument Road as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
A Bell barrow, dating to the Early Bronze Age (circa 2000–1500 BCE), is a type of round barrow typically consisting of a mound of earth and stones, often containing burial remains. This example on Horsell Common is significant as a rare surviving prehistoric burial monument in the area, reflecting early funerary practices and landscape use in Surrey.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
