Nine round barrows 850m north east of Pennatillie is a Bronze Age burial monument complex located in Cornwall. The site comprises nine distinct barrow mounds arranged across the landscape, representing a significant concentration of funerary structures typical of Bronze Age settlement and ritual practices. Round barrows of this period, generally dating from approximately 2000 to 1000 BC, served as prominent markers in the ceremonial landscape whilst containing inhumations or cremations of individuals of social status.
