What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Two bowl barrows at Gibbet Firs, 950m south west and 1080m south west of Palmers Ford Works 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 barrows, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), are burial monuments typically containing burials beneath mounds of earth and stone. These barrows are significant as they represent some of the earliest field evidence for organized burial practices and social structure in prehistoric Britain.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
