The pair of bell barrows and a pair of bowl barrows forming part of a barrow cemetery at Baltic Farm is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire. These earthworks, comprising four distinct burial mounds of differing typological forms, represent a significant example of the ritual landscape practices characteristic of the Bronze Age period. Bell barrows are distinguished by their central mound surrounded by a ditch and outer bank, whilst bowl barrows consist of simple mounded forms, often without surrounding features. The cemetery's composition of multiple barrow types suggests use over an extended period and reflects the ceremonial importance of the site within the prehistoric funerary practices of southern Britain.
