Bowl barrow 440m south east of Throwley Cottage is a Bronze Age burial monument situated in Staffordshire. The site consists of a circular earthwork characteristic of bowl barrows, a common funerary form across Bronze Age Britain, typically constructed as a low mound with a shallow ditch surrounding the base. Such monuments served as prominent landscape markers for ceremonial interment and often contained cremated or inhumed human remains within a central burial pit. The barrow's survival as an identifiable archaeological feature indicates its Bronze Age date, placing it within the period from approximately 2100 to 700 BC when this burial tradition was prevalent in the Midlands and broader Britain.
