Bowl barrow on Lammas Hill is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Warwickshire. The barrow takes the form of a simple hemispherical mound, characteristic of bowl barrows from the second millennium BCE. Such monuments typically contained inhumation or cremation burials within a central grave, often accompanied by grave goods, and served as territorial markers within the Bronze Age landscape. The barrow survives as an earthwork and represents an important archaeological record of prehistoric burial practice in the English Midlands.
