Two bowl barrows at Bygrave, 650m east of Park Wood, are a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument located in Hertfordshire. These earthworks consist of two circular mounds characteristic of bowl barrow construction, a burial form prevalent in Britain from the Neolithic period through the Bronze Age. The barrows represent evidence of ritual burial practice and territorial land use in prehistoric Hertfordshire, contributing to the broader archaeological record of early settlement patterns in the region. Their survival as upstanding earthworks makes them significant indicators of prehistoric monument distribution across the English landscape.
