Four bowl barrows divided by the B3174 is a round barrow cemetery on Farway Hill in Devon, England. The site comprises four distinct Bronze Age burial mounds of bowl barrow type, characteristic earthwork monuments of the second millennium BC. The barrows are bisected by the modern B3174 road, which has altered the spatial integrity of what was once a more unified cemetery group. These monuments represent the funerary practices of Bronze Age communities in the region and survive as important archaeological evidence of prehistoric settlement and ceremonial activity on the Devon uplands.
