Bowl barrow 200m south west of Strangways is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire, England, forming part of the linear cemetery known as the Old King Barrows. The barrow is a bowl-shaped earthwork typical of Bronze Age burial practices, constructed as a mound over an inhumation or cremation burial. This monument belongs to a broader landscape of prehistoric ceremonial and funerary sites characteristic of Wiltshire's chalk downlands, where multiple barrows arranged in linear fashion served as focal points for burial activity over successive generations. The barrow survives as a scheduled ancient monument and remains significant for understanding Bronze Age settlement patterns and mortuary practices in southern England.
