Bowl barrow 660m south west of Woodland Barton is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Devon. The site comprises a simple hemispherical or bowl-shaped earthwork typical of Bronze Age burial practice in south-western England, constructed during the period broadly spanning 2000 to 1000 BC. Such barrows served as burial mounds for elite individuals or family groups and often contained inhumations or cremations within a central grave pit, though the exact contents and construction details of this particular example would require archaeological examination to establish. The barrow's preservation as an upstanding earthwork makes it a significant landscape feature for understanding Bronze Age settlement and ritual practices in the Devon region.
