Snowshill round barrows is a group of Bronze Age funerary monuments located southwest of Snowshill village in Gloucestershire. The site comprises multiple burial mounds typical of the Bronze Age period, when such earthworks served as prominent markers of high-status burial places across the English landscape. The barrows form part of the wider distribution of such monuments characteristic of the Cotswolds region during the second millennium before Christ. Their survival as discernible earthworks demonstrates the enduring physical presence of Bronze Age funerary practice in this part of the English Midlands.
