Bowl barrow 610m south east of Beckhampton Buildings is a Bronze Age funerary monument forming part of the round barrow cemetery distributed across Horton Down in Wiltshire. The barrow takes the form of a simple earthen mound without internal stone structures, typical of bowl barrow morphology from the Bronze Age period. Its location within the broader cemetery reflects the concentration of burial practices on Horton Down during the second millennium BC, a pattern characteristic of Wessex's ritual and funerary landscapes. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork and remains designated for its archaeological and historical significance as evidence of Bronze Age mortuary practice in the region.
