Cross Dyke on the northern spur of Bow Hill is an Iron Age linear earthwork located in Sussex, England. The monument consists of a substantial bank and ditch system that served a defensive or territorial function during the prehistoric period. Its proximity to other notable features in the landscape, including the Tansley Stone, suggests it formed part of a wider pattern of Iron Age land use and boundary marking in the region. The earthwork remains a significant archaeological feature for understanding settlement patterns and land division in Iron Age Sussex.
