Five Hill Field is a prehistoric barrow cemetery and cross dyke located 290 metres south west of Heath Farm in Cambridgeshire. The site comprises multiple burial mounds arranged within a defined field system marked by a cross dyke, a linear earthwork typical of Bronze Age land division. The barrows represent funerary monuments dating to the Bronze Age, reflecting organised cemetery practices and settlement patterns of the period. The survival of both the burial mounds and associated field boundary demonstrates the archaeological significance of this landscape in understanding prehistoric land use and social organisation in the East Anglian region.
