Bowl barrow and part of a later boundary bank, in the northern part of West Wood, 600m west of Mockbeggar Farm is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument located in Kent. The site comprises a bowl-shaped burial mound typical of prehistoric barrow construction, accompanied by a boundary bank of later date that partially overlies or adjoins the original earthwork. The barrow represents evidence of ritual burial practice during the third or second millennium before the common era, whilst the associated boundary bank demonstrates subsequent land management and division of the landscape in a later historical period. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork within a woodland setting, providing archaeological evidence of both prehistoric mortuary practice and medieval or post-medieval field organisation.
