Three bowl barrows 400m north west of Haydon Hut is a Bronze Age funerary monument comprising three burial mounds located in Somerset. The barrows are typical of the Early Bronze Age period, representing a form of funerary architecture that was widespread across southern Britain during the second millennium BCE. Bowl barrows of this type consisted of earthen mounds constructed over cremated or inhumed remains, often accompanied by grave goods. These three examples survive as earthworks in the landscape and form part of the broader pattern of Bronze Age burial practice documented across the Somerset uplands.
