Barrow on Fifield Down is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Wiltshire, situated approximately 700 yards east-southeast of North Barn. The monument survives as an earthwork mound typical of funerary monuments constructed during the Bronze Age, a period when such barrows served as prominent ceremonial and burial landmarks across the chalk downlands of southern England. Its survival on Fifield Down reflects the long-term preservation of archaeological features in this landscape, where intensive arable agriculture and development have claimed many similar monuments. The site's official designation as a scheduled monument recognises its archaeological importance as evidence of Bronze Age settlement, burial practice, and social organisation in the Wiltshire downs.
