Bowl barrow is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument located south of Bulford in Wiltshire, England. The site forms part of a significant cluster of round barrows distributed across the chalk downland in this region, characteristic of the extensive barrow cemeteries that developed during the Bronze Age on Salisbury Plain. The monument comprises a circular earthwork of modest proportions, typical of the bowl barrow form which consists of a simple mound of earth raised over a burial or burials. Such barrows represent important archaeological evidence for funerary practices and settlement patterns during prehistoric periods in southern England.
