Overview

History & significance

Three bowl barrows, 980m east of Woolmer Pond Cottage is a scheduled ancient monument comprising three Bronze Age burial mounds located in Hampshire. The barrows represent the funerary practices of the Bronze Age period, when such earthen mounds were constructed as communal or individual burial structures across the English landscape. Bowl barrows of this type are characterised by their simple hemispherical form, consisting of earth and chalk piled over inhumed or cremated human remains, often accompanied by grave goods. The site's survival as three distinct monuments in this location contributes to understanding Bronze Age settlement and burial patterns across the Hampshire Weald.
