Two Highworth circles is a pair of Bronze Age burial monuments located near North Leaze Farm in Wiltshire. The site comprises two round barrows, typical of funerary structures erected during the Bronze Age, when such mounded earthworks served as repositories for elite or significant members of prehistoric communities. These monuments form part of the broader landscape of barrow groups that characterise the Wiltshire chalk downlands, areas which saw intensive ritual and burial activity during the second millennium before Christ. The precise stratigraphic and artefactual evidence associated with these particular circles is not extensively documented in readily available scholarly sources, though their designation as protected monuments reflects their recognised archaeological significance within the Bronze Age settlement and funerary record of the region.
