Two bowl barrows 150m south east of the Club House on Petersfield Heath Common is a Bronze Age funerary monument forming part of the Petersfield Heath Group, a collection of burial mounds distributed across the common in Hampshire. The barrows are typical of the Bronze Age period, constructed as simple earthen mounds raised over individual or multiple interments, representing a significant funerary practice in southern England during the second millennium BCE. The site's inclusion within a broader barrow group suggests a zone of concentrated burial activity, likely reflecting the territorial or social significance of the Petersfield Heath landscape during prehistory. These monuments survive as earthwork features and contribute to the archaeological and historical character of the wider common, which preserves evidence of sustained prehistoric use and settlement patterns.
