Bowl barrow 760m south of Roel Farm is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Gloucestershire. The site represents a characteristic form of funerary architecture from the second millennium BCE, constructed as a simple earthen mound raised over a central burial or burials. Bowl barrows of this type are distinguished by their rounded profile and absence of external ditches or more elaborate structural features, reflecting the burial practices of Bronze Age communities in the Cotswolds region. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork and remains an important archaeological record of prehistoric mortuary practice in the English Midlands.
