Levens Park is a historic landscape in Westmorland, England, containing significant archaeological features spanning multiple periods. The park preserves round barrows of Bronze Age date, indicating use of the site during prehistory, alongside evidence of medieval settlement activity. The Temple of Diana, a classical garden structure within the park, represents later ornamental development rather than ancient origins, despite its evocative name. The combination of prehistoric burial monuments and medieval occupation patterns demonstrates the long history of human settlement and land use at Levens.
