Three bowl barrows 545m east of Cupper's Piece is a Neolithic or Early Bronze Age funerary monument located in Devon, England. The site comprises three distinct burial mounds characteristic of the bowl barrow form, earthworks that represent the primary funerary tradition of upland communities during the third and second millennia before the present era. Bowl barrows of this type typically contain inhumed or cremated human remains, often accompanied by pottery and other grave goods that reflect the ritual practices and material culture of their period. The survival of three examples in close proximity indicates a significant burial locality and contributes to understanding the distribution and density of prehistoric funerary practices across Devon's landscape.
