Abstract

This paper discusses the Bronze Age barrow group at Mountain Barrows, south west of Pelynt village in Pelynt parish. It brings together reports of antiquarian activity at the site, the results of recent geophysical surveys and a wider examination of the landscape in south-east Cornwall to discuss the development of the barrow group within its local and south-western British context. It also considers how this barrow group influenced the development of the local landscape. It is argued that Mountain Barrows together with two adjacent groups of barrows in Pelynt parish may have flanked an ancient routeway.
