What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Two bowl barrows 70m north west and 50m south east of Tor View at Middle Taphouse 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, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), are burial monuments typically containing inhumation burials. These barrows are significant as they represent some of the earliest field evidence of organized funerary practices and social structure in prehistoric Britain.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
