Bowl barrow 60m south-west of Gaythorne Hall is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Westmorland. The site comprises a circular earthwork mound typical of bowl barrows, a common burial form in upland regions during the second millennium BC. Such monuments served as repositories for cremated or inhumed remains, often accompanied by grave goods, and their distribution across the landscape reflects Bronze Age settlement patterns and territorial organisation. The barrow's survival in its rural setting provides evidence of prehistoric burial practice and the use of upland areas during this period.
