Bowl barrow, 500m SSW of Buckton Barn is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Yorkshire, England. The monument consists of a simple hemispherical earthwork characteristic of bowl barrows, a common form of round barrow constructed during the Bronze Age for funerary purposes. Such barrows typically covered inhumation or cremation burials, often accompanied by grave goods, and served as enduring territorial markers within the prehistoric landscape. The barrow's survival to the present day, despite centuries of agricultural activity, attests to its robust construction and archaeological importance as evidence of Bronze Age funerary practices and settlement patterns in the Yorkshire region.
