Bowl barrow 120m west of East Kennett long barrow is a Neolithic burial mound located in Wiltshire, forming part of a cemetery group associated with the East Kennett long barrow. The monument comprises a circular earthwork typical of bowl barrow construction, representing a distinct burial tradition that developed alongside longer megalithic structures during the Neolithic period. Its position within a defined cemetery landscape demonstrates organised use of the burial ground over time, with individual inhumations interred within the mound structure.
