Three adjoining Prehistoric linear boundaries is a system of ancient field divisions located on Bearah Tor in Cornwall, situated approximately 687 metres south-west of Nodmans Bowda Farm. These boundaries comprise parallel linear earthworks that date to the Prehistoric period and represent evidence of early land management and territorial organisation on the moorland landscape. The monuments consist of banks and associated ditches that would have functioned to delineate agricultural land and stock enclosures, reflecting the subsistence practices of prehistoric communities in this upland region. Such linear boundaries are characteristic features of Bronze Age or Iron Age settlement patterns across Cornish moorland, though precise dating without excavation remains uncertain.
