What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Bowl barrow: one of a group of round barrows on Silk Hill 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 for single inhumation burials. Its presence on Silk Hill indicates a significant prehistoric burial landscape, reflecting early ceremonial and funerary practices in the region.
