Bowl barrow 60m south west of the B3174, forming part of a dispersed barrow group on Farway Hill is a Bronze Age burial monument situated in Devon. The barrow is one of several mounds comprising a scattered cemetery on Farway Hill, reflecting the pattern of funerary activity typical of the Bronze Age in south-western England. As a bowl barrow, it represents a standard form of burial mound constructed during the Bronze Age, characterised by its simple hemispherical earthwork. The survival of this monument as part of a recognisable barrow group contributes to understanding Bronze Age settlement and mortuary practices in the Devon landscape.
