What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Bowl barrow and disc barrow 730m south of Kingston Russell Farm, forming part of the round barrow cemetery on the south western part of Black Down 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 and disc barrow, dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), are types of burial mounds commonly found in round barrow cemeteries across southern England. Their presence on Black Down indicates a significant prehistoric funerary landscape used for communal burial and ritual activity.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
