Bowl barrow 300m south west of Croft Pascoe Pool is a Bronze Age burial mound forming part of a round barrow cemetery on Goonhilly Downs in Cornwall. The monument is a bowl barrow, a common form of round barrow characterised by a simple hemispherical or bowl-shaped earthwork without the internal ditches and banks of more elaborate types. It dates to the Bronze Age period when such burial monuments were constructed across the Cornish landscape, and its survival as part of a barrow cemetery demonstrates the concentration of funerary activity in particular locations during this era. The site lies within a significant archaeological landscape on Goonhilly Downs, where multiple round barrows reflect sustained patterns of Bronze Age burial practice in this region of Cornwall.
