Bowl barrow on Box Hill, 230m west of Upper Farm Bungalow is a Bronze Age burial mound situated on the North Downs near Dorking in Surrey. The monument consists of a circular earthwork typical of bowl barrows, a common funerary monument form from the Bronze Age period. Such barrows served as burial places, often containing inhumations or cremations accompanied by grave goods, and their distribution across the chalk downlands of southern England reflects the settlement patterns and ritual practices of Bronze Age communities. The site's location on Box Hill places it within a landscape of considerable archaeological significance, forming part of the broader pattern of Bronze Age ceremonial and funerary monuments recorded across the Surrey Downs.
