Two barrows on Little Puddle Hill is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Dorset, England. The site consists of two burial mounds that form part of the extensive barrow cemetery distribution across the Dorset landscape, characteristic of the Bronze Age period when such earthworks served as prominent markers for elite and communal burials. The barrows contribute to the archaeological understanding of prehistoric settlement patterns and ritual practices in southern England during the second millennium BCE. As a scheduled ancient monument, the site remains an important resource for the study of Bronze Age funerary architecture and the prehistoric use of the Dorset uplands.
