Overview

History & significance

Long barrow and two bowl barrows, 400m north of Chattis Hill House, is a Neolithic and Bronze Age funerary monument complex located in Hampshire. The site comprises a long barrow, characteristic of Neolithic communal burial practice dating to approximately 4000–3000 BCE, alongside two bowl barrows of Bronze Age date. The long barrow represents one of the earliest forms of monumental architecture in Britain, constructed to contain collective inhumations, whilst the bowl barrows are typical of the subsequent Bronze Age period when individual or small group burials became customary. The survival of multiple barrow monuments at a single location indicates an area of continued ritual and burial significance across several millennia of prehistoric activity.
