Bowl barrow on Wetton Hill is a Neolithic or Early Bronze Age funerary monument located in the Peak District area of Staffordshire. The barrow consists of a circular earthwork mound characteristic of burial structures from this period, constructed to mark and contain inhumation or cremation deposits. Its position on Wetton Hill places it within a landscape that shows evidence of sustained prehistoric activity and settlement. The monument survives as an upstanding feature and remains archaeologically significant as one of numerous barrows distributed across the upland regions of the Peak District, contributing to understanding of mortuary practices and territorial organisation in early prehistory.
