Two bowl barrows one immediately north and one 100m south of Commonmoor Cottage is a Bronze Age funerary monument forming part of a round barrow cemetery in Devon. The two barrows are characteristic examples of bowl-shaped burial mounds typical of the Bronze Age period, when such monuments were constructed across southern England to mark high-status burials or community ritual sites. Their positioning within a wider barrow cemetery indicates the site's importance as a burial landscape during prehistory. The barrows survive as earthwork features in the archaeological record and contribute to the understanding of Bronze Age settlement patterns and mortuary practices in the region.
