Two bowl barrows and a disc barrow 960m north west and a bowl barrow 880m north west of Crab Farm is a group of Bronze Age funerary monuments located in Dorset. The site comprises four separate barrows distributed across the landscape northwest of Crab Farm, consisting of three bowl barrows and one disc barrow, representing typical Bronze Age burial practices of the second and first millennia before the Common Era. These earthwork monuments reflect the ritual and funerary traditions of Bronze Age communities in the region, with the varied barrow forms suggesting different phases of use or social differentiation among the interred populations. The surviving remains of these barrows contribute to the archaeological understanding of Bronze Age settlement patterns and mortuary practices across Dorset's chalk downlands.
