What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Treen Common stone circle 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.
Treen Common stone circle is likely to date to the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age, based on the typical period for such monuments in southern Britain.
