Raunds bowl barrow is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Northamptonshire. The site consists of a circular earthwork with a distinctive bowl-shaped profile, characteristic of round barrows constructed during the Early Bronze Age, roughly 2000 to 1500 BCE. Such barrows served as burial places for individuals of status within their communities and often contained grave goods reflecting the wealth and social position of the deceased. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork and represents an important example of Bronze Age funerary practice in the East Midlands region.
