Widow Howe: two round barrows on Widow Howe Rigg

The National Heritage List for England records Widow Howe: two round barrows on Widow Howe Rigg 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.

Widow Howe is a Bronze Age round barrow; it is part of a funerary landscape associated with early ceremonial and burial practices in northern England. Its scheduling as a monument highlights its archaeological significance in understanding prehistoric land use and social organization.
