Acklam Wold barrow group is a Bronze Age funerary monument located approximately 450 metres south-west of Acklam Wold House in Yorkshire. The site comprises a bowl barrow, a characteristic burial mound form typical of the Bronze Age period, constructed as a earthwork monument. Bowl barrows of this type were used as repositories for cremated or inhumed remains and frequently served as focal points for communal ritual and burial practice during the second and early first millennia BCE. The monument survives as a scheduled ancient monument and represents an important archaeological record of Bronze Age funerary custom and settlement patterns in the Yorkshire uplands.
