A pair of bowl barrows 225m south east of Boreham Mill is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire. These bowl barrows represent a common form of burial mound constructed during the prehistoric period, characterised by their distinctive hemispherical or bowl-shaped earthwork raised over inhumed or cremated remains. The monument demonstrates the burial practices and landscape use of early farming communities in the Wiltshire chalklands, where such barrow cemeteries and individual burial mounds are prevalent archaeological features. The precise dating and original dimensions of these particular barrows remain subject to archaeological assessment, though their survival into the modern landscape attests to their substantial construction.
