Bowl barrow 500m north-east of Cornish Farm is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Sussex, England. The site represents a common funerary tradition of the Bronze Age period, when such earthen mounds were constructed to mark the graves of individuals of standing within their communities. The barrow survives as a roughly circular earthwork, characteristic of bowl barrows, which typically comprised a central burial pit or cremation deposit surrounded by a low mound of soil and chalk. Like many similar monuments in Sussex, this barrow forms part of the broader archaeological evidence for Bronze Age settlement and ritual practices in the weald and downland regions of south-eastern England.
