Bowl barrow 150m north east of Victoria Farm is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Somerset, England. The site comprises a circular earthwork characteristic of bowl barrows, a common funerary monument type constructed during the Bronze Age across southern Britain. Such monuments typically consisted of a central burial pit or cremation deposit surrounded by an earthen mound, serving as a marker for high-status individuals within prehistoric communities. The barrow's survival to the present day, despite subsequent agricultural activity in the landscape, demonstrates the enduring physical legacy of Bronze Age burial practices in the Somerset countryside.
