Bowl barrow, known as Rendcomb Old Park round barrow, is a Bronze Age burial mound located approximately 300 metres north-east of Old Park Farm near Rendcomb in Gloucestershire. The monument takes the form of a circular earthwork characteristic of bowl barrows, a common funerary monument type of the Bronze Age period. Such barrows typically comprised a central burial pit or chamber covered by an earthen mound, often serving as communal or prestigious burial sites for the elite. The barrow's survival as an upstanding earthwork makes it an important archaeological record of Bronze Age burial practice and territorial use in the Cotswold region.
