Bowl barrow 120m north west of Cissbury is a Bronze Age burial mound located on the chalk downland of Sussex, near the well-known Iron Age hillfort of Cissbury Ring. The monument takes the form of a circular earthwork typical of bowl barrows, a common burial form during the Bronze Age period. As a funerary monument, it represents the burial practices and ceremonial landscape of prehistoric Sussex communities, contributing to the wider distribution of barrow cemeteries across the South Downs.
