What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Bowl barrow cemetery and a cross dyke on Horton Common 800m south of Bridge Farm 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.
Bowl barrow cemetery and cross dyke, dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), represent a significant funerary and ritual landscape. The site reflects early communal burial practices and territorial demarcation in southern England.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
