Bowl barrow 470m south east of Down Barn is a Bronze Age funerary monument forming part of the Chaldon Down barrow group in Dorset. As an outlier to the main cemetery cluster, this barrow represents the dispersed pattern of burial practices characteristic of the Bronze Age landscape, when individual or small groups of mounds were constructed across open downland to mark the graves of the deceased. The monument survives as an earthwork and constitutes an important archaeological record of prehistoric mortuary custom and settlement organisation in this region of southern England.
