Two rounds at Playing Place is a Scheduled Monument comprising two circular earthworks located southwest of Carlyon Farm near Playing Place in Cornwall. These round barrows, positioned approximately 960 metres and 970 metres from the farm, date to the Bronze Age and represent funerary monuments typical of that period. The earthworks survive as discernible circular mounds, though their preservation varies, and they form part of the wider Bronze Age funerary landscape characteristic of the Cornish uplands. Such rounds functioned as burial mounds for individuals of status within prehistoric communities and provide evidence of settlement patterns and social organisation during the Bronze Age.
