Bowl barrow 100m north of the A303 on Countess Farm is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire. The site comprises a characteristic bowl-shaped earthwork typical of Bronze Age burial practice in southern England, dating to approximately 2000–1500 BCE. Such monuments served as focal points for the disposal of cremated or inhumed remains and often held ritual significance within contemporary communities. The barrow's survival in the archaeological record provides evidence of settlement patterns and funerary practices during the Bronze Age period in the Salisbury Plain region.
