Saucer barrow on Coxford Heath is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Norfolk. The site takes the form of a saucer barrow, a distinctive type of burial mound characteristic of the Bronze Age period, defined by its shallow, saucer-shaped profile rather than the more pronounced dome of a typical barrow. As a scheduled ancient monument, it represents evidence of prehistoric burial practice and settlement patterns in Norfolk, contributing to the archaeological record of Bronze Age activity in East Anglia. The barrow's preservation as a designated monument reflects its significance for understanding ritual and mortuary practices during this formative period of English prehistory.
