Bowl barrow in Carden Park is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Cheshire, England. The site consists of a circular earthwork characteristic of bowl barrows, a common funerary structure of the Bronze Age period. Such monuments typically comprise a central burial pit surrounded by a low circular mound, and would originally have contained inhumation or cremation burials accompanied by grave goods. The barrow's survival as an upstanding earthwork makes it an important archaeological record of Bronze Age funerary practice in the North West of England.
