Two bowl barrows 400m south of Tanhill Penning is a Neolithic or Early Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire. The site comprises two distinct barrow mounds, characteristic examples of the simple earthen burial structures that were constructed across southern England during the third and second millennia BC. Bowl barrows of this type typically contained inhumation burials and were often used for multiple interments across an extended period. The survival of both mounds in the landscape provides evidence of prehistoric funerary practices and settlement patterns in this region of Wiltshire.
