Two bowl barrows and a pond barrow, 720m and 760m NE of Wood Farm, is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument in Wiltshire. The site comprises three separate barrows: two bowl barrows of typical circular mounded form and a pond barrow, a distinctive variant featuring a central depression rather than a raised mound. These monuments form part of the extensive barrow landscape characteristic of the Wessex region, an area of concentrated prehistoric burial activity. The precise dating and phasing of individual barrows in this group remains subject to archaeological interpretation, though such monuments are generally associated with burial practices spanning the later Neolithic through Bronze Age periods.
