What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Bowl barrow 590m north east of Bere Down 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, dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), is a type of round barrow typically used as a burial monument. This example is significant as it represents one of the few surviving prehistoric burial mounds in the area, reflecting early ceremonial and funerary practices in southern England.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
