Square barrow nr Summer House Farm

History of Square Barrow

Scheduled Monument:

Square barrows are funerary monuments of the Middle Iron Age, most examples dating from the period between c.500 BC and c.50 BC.

Although the square barrow 170m north east of Summer House Farm is no longer visible as an earthwork, its buried remains will survive well.
