Two bowl barrows 200m south east of Hill Barn is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Dorset, England. The site comprises two of a larger group of three barrows, which form part of the extensive barrow cemetery distributions characteristic of the Dorset landscape during the second millennium BCE. Bowl barrows, the predominant burial mound form of the Early to Middle Bronze Age, are simple hemispherical earthworks constructed over inhumed or cremated remains, frequently accompanied by grave goods. This particular pair represents the typical settlement and burial patterns of Bronze Age communities in southern England, and the grouping with a third barrow indicates a concentrated focus of funerary activity at this location during prehistory.
