Two bowl barrows on Stand Low is a Scheduled Ancient Monument comprising two Bronze Age burial mounds located in Derbyshire. These round barrows, characteristic of the funerary practices of the early Bronze Age, represent the type of ritual landscape that developed across the Peak District during the second millennium BCE. The monuments retain their distinctive bowl-shaped profiles, indicating their survival as earthwork features despite centuries of exposure to agricultural and natural processes. Such barrows frequently contained inhumation burials, often accompanied by grave goods, and their positioning on elevated ground like Stand Low reflects deliberate placement within the contemporary settlement and ritual environment.
