Foxhole Barrow is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Devon, England. The barrow represents a typical example of funerary architecture from the second millennium BCE, when such earthen mounds served as communal or high-status burial monuments across southern Britain. The site is recorded as a scheduled ancient monument and contributes to understanding Bronze Age settlement patterns and burial practices in the South West peninsula. Like many barrows of its period, it would have contained inhumations or cremations accompanied by grave goods, though specific archaeological investigations at this particular site are not extensively documented in the readily available scholarly record.
