Bowl barrow and disc barrow 600m NNW of Sandpoint Farm is a Neolithic and Bronze Age funerary monument located in Somerset, England. The site comprises two distinct barrow types, indicating use across successive prehistoric periods for burial and ceremonial purposes. The bowl barrow represents the simpler, more common form of round mound constructed during the Bronze Age, whilst the disc barrow, characterised by its distinctive circular ditch with an internal mound, reflects Neolithic and Early Bronze Age mortuary practice. Together these earthworks constitute evidence of sustained ritual activity at this location during the third and second millennia before the Common Era.
