Bowl barrow 170m south-east of Hunter's Lodge Inn is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Somerset. The barrow takes the form of a rounded earthen mound characteristic of bowl barrows, a common funerary structure erected during the Bronze Age across southern Britain. Such monuments typically contained inhumation burials, often accompanied by grave goods, and served as focal points for ritual activity and territorial markers within prehistoric landscapes. The survival of this barrow as a discrete earthwork demonstrates the preservation of Bronze Age funerary practice in the Somerset landscape.
