Three bowl barrows on Trow Down 520m north west and 545m west of Bigley Buildings is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire. The site comprises three individual bowl barrows, a characteristic burial form of the Bronze Age period, situated on the upland landscape of Trow Down. Bowl barrows represent one of the most common round barrow types of this era, typically consisting of a mound of earth and stone covering a central burial deposit. The monument's position within the wider barrow cemetery landscape of Wiltshire reflects the Bronze Age use of prominent ridge-top and upland locations for the placement of the dead.
