Bowl barrow 100m north-east of Slatepit Coppice is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Gloucestershire, England. The site consists of a circular earthwork mound characteristic of bowl barrow construction, a common burial form across southern Britain during the Bronze Age period. Such monuments typically contained cremated or inhumed remains of individuals of local importance, often accompanied by grave goods. The barrow's survival into the modern period, despite agricultural use of surrounding land, attests to its archaeological significance as evidence of prehistoric settlement patterns and burial practices in the Gloucestershire landscape.
