Three bowl barrows, 60m and 250m south and 500m south west of Nettings Park is a Bronze Age funerary monument complex located in Cornwall, England. Bowl barrows are among the most common burial monuments of the Bronze Age, typically consisting of a central burial pit covered by an earth mound, and these three examples represent a characteristic dispersed cemetery pattern found across southwestern England during the second millennium BC. The individual barrows would have served as permanent markers of elite or communal burial sites within the local Bronze Age landscape. The survival of three separate bowl barrows in close geographical proximity to Nettings Park provides evidence of sustained Bronze Age settlement and ceremonial activity in this region of Cornwall.
