A pair of bowl barrows 500m north east of Overhill Lodge is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Sussex, England. Bowl barrows are among the simplest and most common forms of round barrow, consisting of a circular mound of earth and stone raised over a central burial pit or cremation deposit. This example, comprising two such structures in close proximity, represents typical Bronze Age burial practice in southern England, when communities marked the graves of their dead with these distinctive earthen monuments. The barrows survive as earthwork features in the landscape, contributing to the archaeological record of Bronze Age settlement and ritual activity in the Sussex region.
