Platform barrow 300m south of Wolstonbury Camp is a Neolithic or Early Bronze Age funerary monument located on the South Downs near Henfield in West Sussex. The barrow comprises a raised earthen platform, characteristic of platform barrows constructed during the third and second millennia before the Common Era. Such monuments typically served as burial sites and were often associated with ceremonial or ritual activity on the chalk downland landscape. The barrow's proximity to the Iron Age hillfort of Wolstonbury Camp demonstrates the long-term significance of this ridge location in the prehistoric landscape of Sussex.
