Bell barrow on Godlingston Heath.
The barrow is alongside a footpath through the Isle of Purbeck Golf Course, and it has been landscaped as part of the golf course giving it a very flat top. The monument's scheduling excludes 'the bench and golf ball washing facility situated on the north-east side of the mound'.
Situated high on Godlingston Heath, there are spectacular views from the barrow across Studland Heath and Poole Harbour.
