Bowl barrow 260m east of Templedown Farm is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Somerset, England. The site represents a common form of funerary architecture constructed during the Bronze Age, when such earthen mounds were raised over cremated or inhumed remains as markers of status and commemoration. The barrow survives as an upstanding earthwork on the Somerset landscape, though like many such monuments it has been subject to the effects of ploughing and erosion over the intervening millennia. Its designation on the National Heritage List for England reflects its significance as a prehistoric archaeological site contributing to our understanding of Bronze Age burial practices in the West Country.
