Pair of bowl barrows on Amberley Mount, 760m north east of Downs Farm is a Neolithic or Bronze Age burial monument situated on the South Downs in Sussex. The two barrows represent a characteristic form of funerary architecture common to the prehistoric downland landscape of southern England. These earthwork monuments, constructed as simple mounded burial structures, date to the early Bronze Age period or possibly the later Neolithic, though precise dating without archaeological excavation remains uncertain. The barrows form part of the broader pattern of sepulchral monuments that testify to settlement and ceremonial activity on the Sussex Downs during prehistory.
