Bowl barrow 60m south west of the B3174 is a Bronze Age burial monument situated on Farway Hill in Devon. The barrow forms part of a dispersed group of burial mounds characteristic of Bronze Age funerary practice in the region. Its simple bowl form represents the typical low earthwork structure built to contain cremated or inhumed remains, and such monuments cluster across the high ground as evidence of sustained settlement and ritual activity during the second millennium BC. The site remains an important record of Bronze Age burial customs on the Devon plateau.
