Round barrow cemetery and earlier long barrow on Ailwood Down

The National Heritage List for England records Round barrow cemetery and earlier long barrow on Ailwood 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.

Round barrow cemetery and earlier long barrow on Ailwood Down is a Neolithic and Bronze Age burial site. Its significance lies in the combination of an earlier long barrow, dating to around 3700–2500 BCE, and later round barrows, indicating continuous use of the landscape for burial purposes over many centuries.
