Bowl barrow 80m east of Scarside Plantation is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Westmorland in the English Lake District. The site consists of a rounded earthen mound characteristic of bowl barrows, a common funerary form constructed during the Bronze Age period. Such monuments typically contained inhumed or cremated human remains, sometimes accompanied by grave goods, and served as focal points for ritual activity within prehistoric landscapes. The barrow's survival to the present day makes it an important archaeological record of Bronze Age funerary practice and settlement patterns in the upland regions of northern England.
