Bowl barrow 200m south of Leedown Cottage is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Devon, England. The barrow survives as a roughly circular earthwork mound typical of the bowl barrow form, which represents a common funerary practice during the Bronze Age period. Such monuments were constructed as covering mounds over cremated or inhumed remains, often accompanied by grave goods, and their distribution across the Devon landscape reflects patterns of prehistoric settlement and social organisation. The barrow's preservation contributes to understanding Bronze Age funerary practices and land use in this region of south-western England.
