A bowl barrow and a bell barrow 600m SSE of Shalcombe Manor is a Bronze Age funerary monument forming part of a round barrow cemetery on Pay Down near Shalcombe in Hampshire. The site comprises two distinct barrow types, the bowl barrow representing the simpler mound form characteristic of earlier Bronze Age burial practice, whilst the bell barrow displays the more developed morphology with a distinctive berm and outer ditch typical of later Bronze Age construction. These monuments are situated within a larger cemetery complex, indicating sustained use of the Pay Down location as a burial ground across the Bronze Age period. The barrows survive as earthwork features and constitute important evidence for Bronze Age funerary practices and settlement patterns in the Hampshire landscape.
