Two bowl barrows on Furze Hill, 800m north east of Miller's Farm, is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Dorset. The site comprises two round burial mounds typical of the Early to Middle Bronze Age period, when such barrows served as conspicuous markers of elite or family burial grounds within the contemporary landscape. Bowl barrows of this type, characterised by their simple hemispherical earthwork form, represent one of the most common funerary structures of the Bronze Age and frequently occur in clusters across southern England. The survival of both barrows as upstanding earthworks contributes to the archaeological record of Bronze Age settlement patterns and mortuary practices in the region.
