Bunn's Bank is a prehistoric earthwork located in Norfolk, England. The monument comprises an ancient bank or linear earthwork of Iron Age date, representing evidence of territorial division, livestock management, or defensive arrangements characteristic of later prehistoric settlement patterns in East Anglia. The earthwork survives as a substantial linear feature in the Norfolk landscape, contributing to understanding of the region's Iron Age land organisation and the ways in which communities demarcated and controlled movement across their territory during the pre-Roman period.
