Foxcote Grove bowl barrow is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Gloucestershire. The site represents a characteristic example of the round barrow tradition that flourished across Britain during the second millennium BC, serving as a burial mound for elite or valued members of prehistoric communities. The barrow survives as an earthwork of modest scale, typical of bowl barrows which consist of a simple domed or rounded mound of earth and stone raised over a central burial pit. Such monuments are significant archaeological witnesses to Bronze Age burial practices and social organisation in the region.
