Bowl barrow 150m north of Half Moon Wood is a Neolithic or Early Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire. The barrow consists of a circular earthen mound characteristic of the bowl barrow type, which typically contained inhumation burials and occasionally cremations. Such monuments are among the most common forms of burial structure in southern England, dating primarily to the period between approximately 3500 and 1500 BCE. The site's survival into the modern period, despite intensive agricultural use of the Wiltshire landscape, reflects the substantial construction effort invested in its creation as a focal point for ceremonial burial and community commemoration.
