Three bowl barrows 500m NNE of Fitzhall is a Bronze Age burial monument forming part of the Fitzhall Heath round barrow cemetery in Sussex, England. The site comprises three separate bowl barrows, the most common form of round barrow, which were constructed during the Bronze Age as burial mounds for individuals of elevated status within prehistoric communities. Bowl barrows are characterised by their simple hemispherical form, typically measuring between 15 and 30 metres in diameter with modest central mounds. The barrows at Fitzhall Heath represent the funerary practices of Bronze Age Sussex and contribute to understanding the distribution and density of burial activity across the wider heathland landscape of the region.
