Bowl barrow and pond barrow in Mount Ephraim Plantation is a Bronze Age funerary monument located approximately 810 metres north-west of Field Barn in Norfolk. The site comprises two distinct barrow forms: a bowl barrow, characterized by its simple mounded earthwork, and a pond barrow, which features a central mound surrounded by a ditch that often retains water. These monuments represent significant Bronze Age burial practices and settlement patterns in Norfolk, reflecting the ritual and commemorative practices of prehistoric communities. The survival of both barrow types at this location provides valuable archaeological evidence for understanding Bronze Age funerary traditions in East Anglia.
