The National Heritage List for England records Disc barrow: one of a dispersed group of round barrows on Weather 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.
Disc barrow, dating to the Early Bronze Age, is a type of round barrow characterized by a central mound surrounded by a flat, annular platform. Its significance lies in contributing to the understanding of early funerary practices and settlement patterns in the British Isles.
