Foresters' Oaks round barrow is a prehistoric funerary monument located in Wales and registered as a scheduled ancient monument under Cadw's protection (SAM MM333). The barrow dates to the Bronze Age, when such earthen mounds served as burial repositories for the dead and functioned as focal points for ritual activity within the landscape. The monument consists of an earth mound constructed over an inhumed burial or burials, typical of round barrow construction during the second millennium BCE. As with many such barrows, it represents evidence of burial practice and the social organisation of Bronze Age Welsh communities.
