Bowl barrow forming part of a linear round barrow cemetery on Allington Down is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Wiltshire, England. The barrow is situated within a cemetery of round barrows arranged in a linear configuration across the downland landscape, a characteristic burial practice of the Bronze Age period. As a bowl barrow, it represents the simpler and more common form of round barrow construction, comprising an earthen mound with a circular plan.
