Devil's Jumps, Treyford

The Devil's Jumps are a group of five large bell barrows situated on the South Downs 1.2 kilometres (0.75 mi) south-east of Treyford in the county of West Sussex in southern England.

[1] The Devil's Jumps site is listed as a Scheduled Ancient Monument and as a Local Nature Reserve.

[7] The Devil's Jumps have been dated to the Bronze Age and they are believed to be between three and four thousand years old.

[8] The Devil's Jumps were explored in the 19th century, when bones were found in two of the mounds,[9] although some of the barrows contained no cremated remains at all.

[12] In 2009 permission was given by the landowners to clear trees from the site and return it to chalk downland.
