Pertwood Down Long Barrow
Situated near Monkton Deverill in Brixton Deverill parish, along the Deverill Valley, Wiltshire, this Neolithic grave structure is reported by English Heritage to be generally satisfactory but with significant localised problems - the main one being extensive animal burrowing. The field where this 'scheduled monument at risk' is situated appears to be used primarily for grazing cattle. The land is under private ownership and has no public right of way.
