Three Barrows is a Bronze Age burial monument located north of Halwill Junction in Devon, England. The site comprises three barrows of which Great Halwill Barrow is the principal and most substantial element, representing the funerary practices and settlement patterns of prehistoric Devonshire communities. These mounds form part of the wider distribution of Bronze Age barrow cemeteries across the moorland regions of south-western England, dating to the period approximately 2000 to 700 BCE. The barrows survive as earthwork features within the landscape and retain archaeological potential for understanding burial customs and the ritual significance of the upland areas during the Bronze Age.
