Two bowl barrows on the parish boundary to the south west of the B3174 is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument forming part of a dispersed barrow group on Farway Hill in Devon. The barrows are typical examples of their type, consisting of simple mounded earthworks constructed to cover burials or cremations. Their location on the parish boundary suggests they may have held significance as territorial markers within the prehistoric landscape. The barrow group of which they form part demonstrates the importance of Farway Hill as a focus for burial activity during the later prehistoric period.
