What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Two bowl barrows and a saucer barrow on Picquet Hill 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.
Two bowl barrows and a saucer barrow on Picquet Hill are Neolithic burial mounds, dating to approximately 3000–2500 BCE. These barrows are significant as they represent early communal burial practices and the construction of earthworks during the transition from the Mesolithic to the Neolithic period in Britain.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
