A bell barrow and a saucer barrow 315m ESE of the unfinished hillfort on Ladle Hill is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Hampshire. The bell barrow comprises a central mound surrounded by a ditch and outer bank, a distinctive form characteristic of the Early to Middle Bronze Age. The adjacent saucer barrow represents a flatter variant of the barrow tradition, with a low mound and shallow surrounding depression. Both monuments reflect the ritual burial practices of Bronze Age communities in southern England and contribute to the archaeological landscape surrounding the contemporaneous though unfinished Iron Age hillfort at Ladle Hill.
