Bowl barrow on Sutton Common is a Neolithic or Bronze Age burial mound situated on Sutton Common in Sussex, approximately 120 metres south-west of the Old School House. The monument consists of a circular earthwork typical of bowl barrows, a common funerary monument form across southern England during the Bronze Age period. The site represents an important archaeological witness to prehistoric burial practices and settlement patterns in the Sussex Weald region, though like many barrows of this type, its original contents and precise chronology require further archaeological investigation. The barrow's survival as an upstanding earthwork makes it a significant landscape feature and a protected monument under national heritage legislation.
