Overview

History & significance

Bell barrow 450m ESE of Anmer Farm is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Norfolk, England. The site consists of a bell-shaped burial mound, a characteristic form of barrow construction from the Bronze Age period, distinguished by its defined ditch and bank surrounding a central burial chamber or mound.
