Overview

History & significance

Two bowl barrows 200m SSW of Rollestone Camp is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Wiltshire, England. These earthworks represent the funerary practices of the second and early first millennia BC, a period when such round barrows served as prominent markers of elite burial sites across the chalk downlands of southern Britain. The barrows survive as low mounds characteristic of their type, though like many Wiltshire downland monuments they have been subject to cultivation and erosion over the centuries. Their proximity to Rollestone Camp, an Iron Age hillfort, indicates the continued ritual significance of this landscape across multiple prehistoric periods.
