What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Bell barrow 670m east of Baylea Farm: one of a small group of barrows on Highwood Heath 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.
Bell barrow, dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), is a type of burial mound typically associated with single inhumation burials. Its presence on Highwood Heath indicates a broader pattern of ceremonial and funerary activity in the landscape during the Bronze Age.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
