Bell barrow 300m north east of the Club House on Petersfield Heath Common is a Bronze Age funerary monument forming part of the Petersfield Heath barrow group in Hampshire. The monument is distinguished by its characteristic bell-shaped profile, consisting of a central mound surrounded by a ditch and outer bank, a form typical of Bronze Age elite burials dating to the second millennium before the present. The barrow survives as an earthwork monument and represents an important element within the concentrated cemetery landscape of Petersfield Heath, which contains multiple burial mounds reflecting sustained ritual and burial practice across the Bronze Age period.
