The Large univallate hillfort with a bowl barrow and pillow mounds 970m west of The Bungalow is a multi-period monument located in Somerset combining defensive and burial elements. The hillfort itself, defined by a single substantial defensive rampart, dates to the Iron Age and represents a significant settlement or territorial marker of that period. The site's archaeological interest is enhanced by the presence of a bowl barrow, indicating Bronze Age burial activity, and pillow mounds, which are medieval or post-medieval earthworks associated with rabbit warrening. The survival of these distinct archaeological features on a single site provides evidence of long-term land use across several millennia.
