Bowl barrow is a Bronze Age funerary monument located west of The Belt in Wiltshire, England. It is one of three round barrows forming a small cemetery group in this landscape, representing the burial practices of prehistoric communities during the Bronze Age period. The barrow exhibits the characteristic bowl-shaped earthwork typical of this monument class, a form that became widespread across southern England during the second millennium before Christ. Such barrows served as burial mounds for individuals of social standing and remain significant archaeological features for understanding settlement patterns and ritual practices in prehistoric Wiltshire.
