Bowl barrow on North Hill is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Sussex, England. The structure takes the form of a simple hemispherical earthwork characteristic of bowl barrows, the most common barrow type of the Bronze Age period. Such monuments served as burial mounds for individuals of status and were typically constructed during the second and third millennia before Christ. The barrow's survival into the modern period makes it an important archaeological record of Bronze Age burial practice and landscape use in southeastern England.
