Two bowl barrows 700m south of Springbottom Farm buildings is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire. These earthworks represent the characteristic burial tradition of the Bronze Age period, when communities constructed simple mound structures over cremated or inhumed remains. Bowl barrows of this type typically date between approximately 2000 and 1000 BCE and occur frequently across Wiltshire's chalkland, forming part of a wider landscape of prehistoric ritual and mortuary practice. The site's location within the wider barrow cemetery landscape of Wiltshire contributes to our understanding of Bronze Age settlement patterns and social organization.
