Six bowl barrows 560m north of New Barn: part of a barrow cemetery on Monkton Down

The National Heritage List for England records Six bowl barrows 560m north of New Barn: part of a barrow cemetery on 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 barrows, dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), are burial monuments typically containing cremated remains. This site is significant as part of a barrow cemetery, reflecting early communal burial practices and social organization in prehistoric Britain.
