Scheduled Ancient Monuments
A schedule has been kept since 1882 of monuments considered to be of national importance by the government.
There are eleven Scheduled Ancient Monuments in South Bucks:
| Address | Type of Monument | Parish |
|---|---|---|
| Bower Wood | Moated Site | Beaconsfield |
| Golf Course | Bowl Barrow | Beaconsfield |

Like Listed Buildings, Scheduled Monuments are subject to greater planning controls and any works carried out within the scheduled area require Scheduled Monument Consent
Other monuments
A number of other monuments within the area are of archaeological significance but are not scheduled. The Buckinghamshire County Museum has drawn up a list identifying these sites, which are referred to as Archaeological Notification Sites. When planning applications are received which could affect an Archaeological Notification Site, the Council will seek the advice of the County Museum. For more information from Bucks County Museum.
