What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Bowl barrow 500m west of Well Bottom Wood, forming part of the Pitcombe Down round barrow cemetery 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, dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), is a type of burial monument typically containing a central cist or burial pit. This example is part of the Pitcombe Down round barrow cemetery, which is significant for illustrating the funerary practices and social organisation of Bronze Age communities in southern England.
