Gallows Hill tumulus is a Neolithic burial mound located in Norfolk, England. The site is recorded as a scheduled monument and represents one of the region's early funerary monuments, dating to the Neolithic period when such earthwork barrows served as communal or individual burial places. The tumulus survives as an earthwork monument, though like many such features it has been subject to erosion and modification over millennia. Its presence in the Norfolk landscape contributes to understanding prehistoric settlement patterns and funerary practices in East Anglia during the fourth and third millennia before Christ.
