Bowl barrow on Sugar Hill is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Wiltshire, England. The monument consists of a simple hemispherical earthwork, characteristic of bowl barrows constructed during the Bronze Age, a period when such funerary monuments were commonly erected across southern England. The barrow would have originally contained a burial deposit, though like many such monuments it has been subject to antiquarian and archaeological investigation over the centuries. As a scheduled ancient monument, it forms part of the significant concentration of prehistoric burial sites found within Wiltshire's archaeological landscape.
