Cow Low bowl barrow is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Derbyshire, England. The site consists of a characteristic bowl-shaped earthwork typical of burial mounds constructed during the Bronze Age, representing a common form of ceremonial interment practice across prehistoric Britain. Such monuments often contained cremated or inhumed remains, though the specific contents and condition of this particular barrow would require archaeological documentation. The barrow forms part of the broader landscape of Bronze Age burial sites documented across the Derbyshire region, which testifies to settlement and ritual practices during the second millennium before Christ.
