Three bowl barrows 720m south-west of Beaulieu Road Station is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in the New Forest area of Hampshire. The site comprises three burial mounds, typical of the barrow cemetery tradition that flourished across southern England during the Bronze Age, approximately 2200 to 700 BCE. Bowl barrows represent the simplest and most common form of Bronze Age burial monument, consisting of earthen mounds raised over cremation or inhumation burials, often accompanied by grave goods. The survival of three barrows in close proximity indicates the importance of this location as a burial place during prehistoric times and contributes to understanding Bronze Age mortuary practices and settlement patterns in the New Forest region.
