Acklam Wold barrow group is a prehistoric burial monument located in North Yorkshire, comprising a bowl barrow situated approximately 450 metres south of Acklam Wold House. The monument dates to the Bronze Age and represents a characteristic funerary tradition of that period, when such earthen mounds were constructed to mark individual or collective burial sites across the Yorkshire landscape. The bowl barrow itself exhibits the typical form of this monument type, with a circular or near-circular mound of earth constructed over a burial deposit. The site remains of archaeological significance as evidence of Bronze Age burial practices and territorial organisation in the region.
