Bowl barrow on Peaked Hill is a Bronze Age burial mound located in the New Forest area of Hampshire, approximately 550 metres west of East Boldre Vicarage. The monument consists of a circular earthwork of relatively modest dimensions, characteristic of the bowl barrow type that was widely constructed during the Bronze Age across southern England. Bowl barrows of this form typically contained inhumation burials, often accompanied by grave goods, and served as focal points for Bronze Age communities. The barrow remains a significant archaeological witness to funerary practices and settlement patterns in the New Forest during the Bronze Age period.
