Bowl barrow in Bowness Gardens is a Bronze Age funerary monument located near Bowness in Gloucestershire. The site consists of a roughly circular earthen mound of modest proportions, characteristic of bowl barrow morphology as developed during the Bronze Age period. Such monuments typically served as burial structures for individuals of some status, with inhumations or cremations deposited beneath or within the mound. The barrow's survival within the gardens represents a valuable remnant of Bronze Age mortuary practice in the Gloucestershire landscape, though the precise details of its original construction and any associated finds remain limited in the available archaeological record.
