Bowl Barrow 225m S of Tolsford Hill telecommunications mast is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Kent, England. The monument survives as a bowl-shaped earthwork, a characteristic form of barrow prevalent during the Bronze Age period, which functioned as a funerary monument for high-status individuals or community members. Its survival in the landscape, despite later disturbance and agricultural use, makes it an important archaeological resource for understanding Bronze Age mortuary practices and social organisation in south-eastern England. The barrow's proximity to the telecommunications mast provides a modern geographical reference point for this otherwise ancient and undisturbed archaeological site.
