Two bowl barrows 350m south of Brimble Pit Pool is a pair of Bronze Age funerary monuments forming part of a larger barrow cemetery north and east of Foxhills Wood in Somerset. The barrows are simple in form, comprising earthen mounds without complex internal structures, typical of Neolithic and Early Bronze Age burial practices in south-western England. Their positioning within a wider group of round barrows indicates a concentration of sepulchral activity across the landscape, reflecting patterns of settlement and ritual practice during the Bronze Age period. The monument is protected as a scheduled ancient monument, preserving important archaeological evidence of prehistoric funerary custom and land use in the Somerset region.
