Bowl barrow on Withery Low is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Derbyshire. The barrow takes the form of a simple mound of earth and stone, characteristic of the bowl barrow type that was widely constructed across Britain during the Bronze Age period. Such monuments served as burial places for individuals of status within prehistoric communities, and their distribution across the landscape provides evidence for settlement patterns and territorial organisation during this era. The barrow's survival as an upstanding archaeological feature contributes to the understanding of Bronze Age funerary practices in the East Midlands region.
