Two bowl barrows 690m and 760m south west of Leworthy is a Scheduled Ancient Monument comprising two separate burial mounds of Bronze Age date located on the Devon uplands. Bowl barrows are among the most common funerary monuments of the Bronze Age, typically consisting of earthen mounds raised over cremated or inhumed remains and often surrounded by a circular ditch. These two examples represent the funerary practices and ritual landscape of Bronze Age communities in the south-western peninsula.
