Two bowl barrows on Sopley Common is an ancient monument consisting of two Bronze Age burial mounds located approximately 680 metres and 640 metres north-west of Brickfield Cottage in Hampshire. These earthworks are characteristic of the funerary monuments constructed during the Bronze Age, when such barrows served as communal or individual burial places within the landscape. The barrows survive as rounded mounds, though their original dimensions and internal structures have been subject to the effects of time and land use. Their preservation as scheduled ancient monuments reflects their archaeological significance as evidence of Bronze Age settlement patterns and burial practices in the Hampshire region.
