Bowl barrow 300m south east of Gorvin is a Bronze Age burial mound situated in Devon. The monument consists of a circular earthwork characteristic of bowl barrow typology, a form of round barrow widespread across southern Britain during the second millennium before Christ. Bowl barrows typically comprised a central burial chamber or pit surrounded by a circular mound of earth and stone, often accompanied by a ditch that defined the monument's perimeter. The barrow's survival as an upstanding archaeological feature reflects both its construction in antiquity and its relative preservation in the landscape, making it a significant record of Bronze Age funerary practice and settlement distribution in Devon.
