Bowl barrow 450m north of Springbottom Farm is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Wiltshire. The site consists of a circular earthwork mound typical of bowl barrows, the most common form of Bronze Age funerary architecture in southern England, which functioned as a burial chamber for cremated or inhumed remains. Such monuments were generally constructed during the Early to Middle Bronze Age, roughly between 2000 and 1500 BCE. The barrow survives as an upstanding earthwork and forms part of the broader landscape of Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments characteristic of Wiltshire's chalk downlands.
