Hill of Peace is a bowl barrow situated approximately 290 metres north west of Gatehouse Farm in Norfolk. The monument dates to the Bronze Age and represents a characteristic funerary structure of that period, when such earthworks served as burial mounds for the cremated or interred remains of the dead. The barrow exhibits the typical form of a bowl barrow, consisting of a central mound surrounded by a defining ditch, and its survival in the Norfolk landscape contributes to the archaeological record of Bronze Age burial practices in East Anglia.
