Overview

History & significance

The monument survives as an earthen barrow, a form of funerary monument characteristic of the Bronze Age period when such structures were constructed across southern Britain to contain cremated or inhumed remains. The barrow's position in the Cornish landscape places it within a wider distribution of similar monuments that document Bronze Age settlement and burial practices in the county. Though subject to the weathering and agricultural processes that have affected many such monuments, its survival demonstrates the persistence of Bronze Age funerary monuments in the Cornish archaeological record.
