Overview

History & significance

Bowl barrow 120m ESE of The Croft is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Hampshire, England. The site consists of a circular earthwork typical of bowl barrows, a common burial form constructed during the Bronze Age period. Such monuments served as burial places for individuals of some status within their communities and often contained cremated or inhumed remains, sometimes accompanied by grave goods. The barrow's survival to the present day, despite the passage of more than three thousand years, demonstrates the robustness of this earthwork type and contributes to the archaeological understanding of Bronze Age burial practices and settlement patterns in the Hampshire region.
