Two bowl barrows 100m north east of Bowldown Wood is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument located in Gloucestershire. Bowl barrows are among the most common forms of prehistoric burial mound, typically comprising a single grave or cremation deposit at the centre surrounded by a circular earthwork.

Their survival into the modern period contributes to understanding of prehistoric settlement and burial patterns in the Gloucestershire landscape.
