A cairn, a carved rock, and a rubble bank in the south west corner of Scale Knoll Allotment, 800m south east of Far East Hope, Barningham Moor is a Bronze Age ceremonial or funerary monument complex located in North Yorkshire. The site comprises three distinct archaeological features: a cairn of stacked stone, a rock bearing carved marks or designs, and an associated rubble bank, which together suggest ritual or commemorative use during the Bronze Age period. The carved rock element is particularly significant as evidence of prehistoric artistic expression and symbolic practice on the moors of northern England. The monument is recorded on the National Heritage List for England under entry number 1017431, reflecting its archaeological importance as part of the broader Bronze Age landscape of Barningham Moor.
