Bowl barrow south of Rivar Copse is a Bronze Age burial mound forming part of an extensive barrow cemetery on Inkpen Hill in Berkshire. The monument comprises a circular earthwork of characteristic bowl barrow form, typical of funerary monuments constructed during the second millennium BCE. As one of several barrows distributed across Inkpen Hill, it represents a significant concentration of Bronze Age burial activity in the landscape and contributes to the archaeological understanding of prehistoric settlement patterns and ritual practice in the Berkshire Downs. The site remains largely undisturbed and retains archaeological potential for future investigation.
