What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Two bowl barrows to the north west of Roncombe Gate Farm, forming part of a dispersed barrow group on Farway 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.
Bowl barrows, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), are burial monuments typically containing inhumations and occasionally grave goods. These barrows are part of a wider ceremonial and funerary landscape associated with early Bronze Age funerary practices in southern England.

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