Its saved wording adds: The National Monuments Record of Wales records Sutton 268 Ft as Round Barrow from the Bronze Age period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Who made it and when
The saved record identifies Sutton 268 Ft as Round Barrow. It assigns the place to Bronze Age, but does not safely name its makers or a precise construction date.
How it was made and used
Its classification points to burial or commemoration. The saved wording does not establish the full building method, ceremonies or length of use, so those details remain open.
What was found
No safe list of excavated objects, bones, carvings or dates is supplied by the short saved record. Finds are not invented from the place type or local name.
What remains
The public record still maps Sutton 268 Ft as Round Barrow. The point may mark standing remains, earthworks, a buried site or the centre of a wider area, and this first account keeps that difference visible.
Why it mattered
The place preserves physical evidence or local memory connected with round barrow. Its source and exact position give later research a firm starting point without turning uncertain tradition into fact.
