Overview

History & significance

Three bowl barrows 160m south west of Hatt House is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire. The site comprises three burial mounds of the type characteristic of the early to middle Bronze Age period, when such earthworks were constructed as communal or individual interment features across southern Britain. Bowl barrows of this form typically consist of a central burial pit or grave covered by a roughly hemispherical mound of soil and chalk, often surrounded by a ditch from which material was extracted for the mound's construction. The survival of three distinct examples at this location indicates a significant Bronze Age burial ground, contributing to the broader archaeological evidence of ritual and mortuary practice in the Wiltshire landscape.
