Royal Oak round barrow is a Bronze Age funerary monument located approximately 320 metres north of Listercombe Bottom in Gloucestershire. The barrow survives as a substantial earthwork mound typical of the round barrow tradition that flourished during the Bronze Age in Britain, a period of significant cultural development characterised by the establishment of burial practices that often incorporated cremated or inhumed remains within ceremonial landscapes. Such monuments typically served as focal points for communities and may have been associated with high-status individuals or family groups.
