Bowl barrow 220m north west of Gore Farm is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Dorset. The barrow takes the form of a circular earthen mound, characteristic of the bowl barrow type that flourished during the Bronze Age, typically between roughly 2200 and 1500 BCE. Such monuments served as burial places and were often constructed to commemorate individuals of status within their communities.
