Bowl barrow 900m south west of the junction of the Ridgeway and Green Street is a Bronze Age funerary monument located on Avebury Down in Wiltshire. The barrow forms part of an extensive round barrow cemetery situated on the downs, representing a significant cluster of burial monuments from the Bronze Age period. As a bowl barrow, it exhibits the characteristic dome-shaped earthwork typical of this monument class, which was commonly constructed during the second and early first millennium BCE. The site's location within the wider barrow cemetery of Avebury Down reflects the importance of this landscape as a burial ground and demonstrates the settlement and funerary practices of Bronze Age communities in the Wiltshire chalk downlands.
