Bowl barrow west of Fen Covert, 305m south of Fen Cottage is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Suffolk. The monument survives as a bowl-shaped earthwork, a common form of funerary monument characteristic of the Bronze Age period in East Anglia. Bowl barrows of this type typically contained inhumation or cremation burials, often accompanied by grave goods, and served as focal points for ritual activity and territorial demarcation within prehistoric communities. The site's survival as an upstanding earthwork makes it an important archaeological record of Bronze Age burial practices and settlement patterns in the Suffolk landscape.
