Two bowl barrows, one 380m west and one 685m north west of Beech Croft, is an ancient monument designation in Somerset comprising two Bronze Age funerary structures. Bowl barrows are the most common form of round barrow, consisting of a circular earthen mound raised over a burial deposit, typically dating to the second millennium BC. The two examples at this location represent part of the dispersed pattern of Bronze Age burial monuments characteristic of Somerset's upland and moorland areas. Their survival and scheduling reflect their archaeological significance as indicators of prehistoric settlement and ritual practice in the region.
