Bowl barrow 250m south of Westfield Farm buildings is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Wiltshire. The monument consists of a circular earthwork typical of bowl barrows, which represent one of the commonest forms of prehistoric funerary monument on the English chalk downlands. Such barrows were constructed during the Bronze Age as burial places, often for individuals of some status within their communities, and frequently contained inhumations or cremations accompanied by grave goods. This particular example survives as an earthwork and forms part of the wider landscape of prehistoric activity documented across Wiltshire's chalk uplands.
