What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Bowl barrow 650m south of The Friary of St Francis 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 single burial monument. Its significance lies in its contribution to understanding early funerary practices and landscape use in prehistoric England.
