Mapledurwell Bowl Barrow
Mapledurwell Bowl Barrow submitted by SolarMegalith : A Bronze Age bowl barrow in Mapledurwell - view from the North (photo taken on February 2011). (Vote or comment on this photo)
A large Bronze Age bowl barrow is located NE from the centre of Mapledurwell on private property. It is over 30 m in diameter and over 1.5m in height. Its northern part clearly suffered some damage, as the slope of the mound is very sharp here.

The site has produced some artefacts, mainly flint flakes - the finds can be seen in Basingstoke.

The landowner is a very kind person and let me visit the site without hesitation, so don't dash into his property without letting him know, just ask for permission.
