Two bowl barrows in Rendlesham Forest, 285 metres north west of Manor Cottage, is a Bronze Age funerary monument comprising two circular earthwork mounds. The barrows represent typical examples of Bronze Age burial practices in East Anglia, dating to the second millennium before the present era. Both mounds survive as low earthwork features within the forest landscape, though their original profiles may have been reduced by centuries of woodland management and natural processes. The site forms part of a wider distribution of Bronze Age funerary monuments across the Rendlesham area, which reflects intensive settlement and burial activity during the Bronze Age period.
