Two bowl barrows forming part of Rollestone Field linear round barrow cemetery is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire, England. The site comprises two distinct bowl barrows that form part of a larger linear cemetery arrangement characteristic of Bronze Age burial practices, a period spanning approximately 2200 to 700 BC. Bowl barrows represent one of the most common forms of round barrow, consisting of a central burial mound with a relatively simple hemispherical or gently sloping profile. The linear arrangement of multiple barrows within Rollestone Field reflects the sequential use of burial grounds during the Bronze Age, demonstrating patterns of family or community interment that extended across generations.
