Bowl barrow on Wick Down is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Wiltshire, England. The monument consists of a simple hemispherical earthwork characteristic of bowl barrows, the most common form of prehistoric funerary monument in southern Britain. Such barrows typically contained inhumation burials, often accompanied by grave goods, and served as focal points for Bronze Age communities between approximately 2000 and 1000 BCE. The site's designation as a scheduled monument reflects its archaeological importance as evidence of prehistoric burial practice and settlement patterns in the Wiltshire landscape.
