Bowl barrow 175m south west of Elworthy Cross is a Bronze Age funerary monument located on Exmoor in Devon. The barrow takes the form of a simple mound of earth and stone, characteristic of bowl barrow design, which represents one of the most common burial monument types of the Bronze Age period. Such barrows typically contained inhumation or cremation burials, often with associated grave goods, and served as territorial markers within the Bronze Age landscape. The monument's survival on Exmoor, an area rich in prehistoric archaeology, contributes to the understanding of Bronze Age settlement and burial practices in South West England.
