Bowl barrow on Old Field is a Bronze Age burial mound located in the countryside southeast of Ludlow in Shropshire. The monument takes the form of a circular earthwork, characteristic of bowl barrows of the Bronze Age period, and represents a funerary monument typical of the early second millennium BC. Such barrows were constructed as burial places for elite or high-status individuals, often containing cremated or inhumed remains along with grave goods. The site's survival to the present day contributes to the archaeological record of Bronze Age settlement and ritual practice in the Ludlow region and the broader Welsh Marches.
