Two bowl barrows 460m NNW of Longstone Cottage is a pair of round barrows forming part of a barrow cemetery on Mottistone Down in Hampshire. These earthworks are Bronze Age burial monuments, typical of the funerary landscape established across southern England during the second millennium BCE. The barrows survive as low earthen mounds characteristic of bowl barrow form, representing the ritual burial practices of Bronze Age communities. As components of a larger cemetery site, they contribute to understanding the distribution and density of burial activity on the chalk downlands of Hampshire during prehistory.
