Bowl barrow 450m south-west of Savernake Lodge is a prehistoric burial mound located in Wiltshire, situated within the Savernake Forest estate. The monument consists of a simple hemispherical earthwork characteristic of bowl barrows, a common funerary form in southern England during the Bronze Age. Such barrows typically contained cremated or inhumed remains, often accompanied by grave goods that reflected the status of the deceased. The site's preservation within managed woodland has helped maintain its archaeological integrity as part of the wider Bronze Age burial landscape of the Savernake area.
