Bowl barrow 300m south east of Hyford Cottage is a Bronze Age burial mound situated in Dorset. The monument consists of a circular earthwork typical of bowl barrows, a common funerary monument form dating to the Bronze Age period. Such barrows served as repositories for cremated or inhumed remains, often accompanied by grave goods reflecting the status of the deceased.
