Two bowl barrows on South Down 660m north west of Chase Barn is a prehistoric burial monument located in Wiltshire, England. The site comprises two round barrows of Bronze Age date, belonging to a period of sustained barrow construction across the Wiltshire chalklands between approximately 2200 and 1500 BCE. Bowl barrows of this type typically comprise an earthen or chalk mound raised over a central burial or cremation, often accompanied by grave goods, and represent one of the most common funerary monument types of the Bronze Age in southern Britain.
