Bowl barrow 160m south-east of Oldfields Farm is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Staffordshire. The site consists of a circular earthwork mound characteristic of bowl barrows, the most common form of burial mound constructed during the Bronze Age in Britain. Such monuments typically date to the period between approximately 2000 and 1500 BCE, serving as burial places for individuals of some social standing within their communities. The barrow's survival to the present day, despite extensive agricultural use of the surrounding landscape, testifies to its robust construction and enduring physical presence on the Staffordshire terrain.
