Bowl barrow, known as Bauble's Barrow, is a Neolithic or Bronze Age burial mound located approximately 500 metres south of Empshill Farm in Gloucestershire. The monument takes the form of a circular earthwork typical of bowl barrows, a category of round barrow characterised by a simple convex mound without a surrounding ditch or with only a modest peripheral feature. Such monuments were constructed during the later Neolithic period through to the Bronze Age as funerary monuments, often containing inhumation or cremation burials within or beneath the mound. The barrow survives as a scheduled monument and is recorded on the National Heritage List for England under entry 1016836.
