Barrow Cemetery in Surrey
Three bronze age barrows, located beside the Earlswood Common golf course and nature reserve. The most obvious is located beside the road between St John's and Meadvale, due to the large Victorian pine tree growing from the barrow.
I have yet to discover the definitive location of the other two barrows, but the offical Reigate and Banstead Borough Council area guide explicitly states that they exist. A second possible barrow lies a few metres south of the main barrow. The guide also states that bronze age artefacts have been discovered on the common.
