Two round barrows on Horsford Heath is a prehistoric funerary monument located in Norfolk, England. The barrows date to the Bronze Age and represent the burial practices of early metalworking communities in East Anglia. These earthen mounds, now surviving as low circular features in the landscape, form part of a wider distribution of barrow monuments across the Norfolk Heathlands that served as repositories for the cremated or inhumed remains of the dead. The site retains archaeological potential for the recovery of artefactual and faunal evidence relating to Bronze Age society and funerary ritual.
