Bell barrow and bowl barrow 500m NNW of Long Orchard is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire. The site comprises two distinct barrow types: a bell barrow, characterised by a central mound surrounded by a ditch and external bank, and a bowl barrow, the simpler form consisting of a rounded mound with encircling ditch. Both monuments date to the Bronze Age and represent important evidence of prehistoric burial practices and land use in the region. The preservation of these paired monuments contributes to understanding the development and variation of barrow construction across Wiltshire's Bronze Age landscape.
