Bowl barrow 375m WNW of Easton Down Farm is a Bronze Age burial mound forming part of a dispersed group of round barrows situated on the chalk downland south of Easton Down in Wiltshire. The monument consists of a simple bowl-shaped earthwork, characteristic of burial practice during the Bronze Age, when such barrows served as communal or individual graves for the interred dead and their grave goods. Its inclusion within a barrow cemetery indicates the significance of this area as a focal point for burial activity in prehistory, reflecting patterns of settlement and landuse during the second millennium BC. The monument is recorded on the National Heritage List for England and remains an important archaeological resource for understanding Bronze Age funerary practices in the Wiltshire chalk country.
