Two bowl barrows 500m south of Fearnhill School is a prehistoric funerary monument located in Hertfordshire. The site comprises two round barrows of Bronze Age date, representing a common burial practice in which earthen mounds were raised over cremated or inhumed remains. Bowl barrows of this type are among the most characteristic monuments of the Bronze Age landscape in southern England, typically constructed between approximately 2000 and 1000 BC. The survival of these two examples contributes to the archaeological record of burial practices and settlement patterns in Hertfordshire during the Bronze Age period.
