Round barrow 750yds (690m) SE of Smeathe's Plantation is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Wiltshire. The monument comprises a circular earthwork typical of the barrow tradition that flourished across southern England during the Bronze Age, serving as a funerary and commemorative structure for elite or community members. Like many such barrows in the Wiltshire landscape, its survival reflects both the durability of earthen construction and the relative preservation of monuments on chalk downland. The site contributes to the archaeological record of Bronze Age mortuary practice and settlement patterns in the region.
