Bowl barrow 180m north of the Merry Maidens Stone Circle

The National Heritage List for England records Bowl barrow 180m north of the Merry Maidens Stone Circle 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 consisting of a circular earthen mound. This example is associated with the broader ritual landscape of the Merry Maidens Stone Circle, highlighting the significance of the area for prehistoric funerary and ceremonial practices.
