Acklam Wold barrow group is a Bronze Age burial monument located approximately 300 metres south-east of Acklam Wold House in Yorkshire, England. The site comprises a bowl barrow, a form of funerary monument characteristic of the Bronze Age period, which would have originally contained inhumation or cremation burials beneath an earthen mound. Bowl barrows of this type represent some of the most common burial structures constructed during the second and early first millennia before the present, reflecting established ritual practices and social organisation. The monument is protected as a scheduled ancient monument and retains archaeological significance as evidence of Bronze Age funerary practice and settlement patterns in the Yorkshire landscape.
