What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Bowl barrow 650m ESE of New Barn, between Avebury Down and Monkton 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, dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), is a type of round barrow typically used as a burial monument. This example is significant as part of the dense concentration of prehistoric monuments in the Avebury area, reflecting early ceremonial and funerary practices in southern England.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
