Bowl barrow 140m south-east of Fishpool Lane Farm is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Cheshire, England. The barrow survives as a substantial earthwork mound of characteristic bowl form, representing a funerary structure typical of the Bronze Age period when such monuments were constructed across the British landscape. Bowl barrows of this type served as burial chambers for individuals of status and were often accompanied by grave goods reflecting the social and economic importance of the deceased. The monument's survival as a distinct landscape feature demonstrates the durability of Bronze Age mortuary architecture and contributes to understanding settlement patterns and funerary practices in the North West of England during the second and early first millennia before Christ.
