Four bowl barrows on Weavers Down is a Neolithic and Bronze Age funerary monument comprising four earthen mounds situated on chalk downland in Hampshire. The barrows are characteristic of the bowl barrow type, simple hemispherical burial mounds that were constructed across southern England during the Bronze Age, though the archaeological sequence at this location likely encompasses Neolithic activity as well. Located northwest of The Sanctuary in the chalk landscape, these monuments represent the continuation of burial practices across successive prehistoric periods. The site survives as earthwork remains and forms part of the broader archaeological landscape of the Wiltshire and Hampshire chalk downs, a region rich in prehistoric funerary and ritual monuments.
