Round Barrow(s) in Surrey. Just on the Chobham - Sunningdale parish boundary lie several bronze-age barrows.

The OS map shows one small barrow in the garden of Heatherside / Round Barrow House in the Ridgemount Rd. This has not been excavated.

The major barrow lay just inside the Chobham parish border south of the clubhouse of Sunningdale Golf Course. It does not seem to have survived - except maybe as a raised tee. When it was opened in December, 1901, it contained twenty-three cinerary urns and two cremated interments without urns. Of these seven urns are in Reading Museum; one and fragments in Guildford Museum; one in private hands at Sunningdale. The Surrey Heath Museum has reproductions and a fragment.
