Two Highworth circles is a pair of prehistoric ring ditches located approximately 250 metres and 325 metres north of Eastrop Farm near Highworth in Wiltshire. The monuments date to the Bronze Age and represent the remains of burial mounds or ceremonial structures, identified through archaeological survey and cropmark evidence. Both circles are defined by ditches that once enclosed raised earthen mounds, a characteristic form of funerary architecture common throughout the Wiltshire downs during the second millennium BC. The site contributes to the wider landscape of Bronze Age ritual and mortuary practice evident across this archaeologically rich region.
