The pair of bowl barrows on Windover Hill, 170 metres south of the Long Man, is an ancient funerary monument comprising two earthen mounds dating to the Bronze Age. These barrows represent typical examples of burial practice during the second millennium BCE, when such structures served as communal or individual sepulchres for prominent members of prehistoric communities. The two mounds survive as low earthwork features on the chalk downland landscape, their form testament to the funerary traditions of early Bronze Age inhabitants of the South Downs. Their proximity to the nearby Long Man figure situates them within a zone of considerable prehistoric and later ritual significance.
