Round barrow 250yds (230m) S of Chapel Coppice is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Dorset, England. The barrow represents a typical example of the burial mounds constructed during the Bronze Age period, when such earthworks were commonly raised over the remains of individuals of presumed social importance. The monument survives as an earthwork feature in the Dorset landscape, forming part of the broader archaeological record of Bronze Age settlement and ritual practice in the region. Like other barrows of its type and period, it contributes to our understanding of prehistoric funerary customs and social organisation in southern England during the second millennium before the present.
