Bowl barrow is a Bronze Age funerary monument forming part of a barrow cemetery situated south of Bulford in Wiltshire. The monument consists of a round earthwork with a distinctive bowl-shaped profile, a characteristic form of burial mound constructed during the second and first millennia before the common era. As a component of a larger group of round barrows in this locality, it reflects the sustained use of this landscape for burial practices across the Bronze Age period. Such barrow groups are important archaeological evidence for prehistoric settlement patterns and ritual activity on the Chalk downlands of southern England.
