Bowl barrow cemetery on Bully Hill is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Lincolnshire. The site comprises multiple bowl barrows, which are characteristic round mounds typical of Bronze Age funerary practice in Britain, dating to approximately the second millennium BCE. Bowl barrows of this period generally contained inhumation burials, often accompanied by grave goods such as pottery and metalwork, reflecting the burial customs and social structures of Bronze Age communities. The cemetery's survival as a scheduled monument demonstrates the archaeological importance of such barrow groups for understanding prehistoric settlement patterns and mortuary practices in the East Midlands region.
