Acklam Wold barrow group is a Bronze Age funerary monument comprising three burial mounds situated approximately 200 metres south-west of Acklam Wold House in North Yorkshire. The group consists of two bell barrows and one bowl barrow, representing characteristic monument types of the Early to Middle Bronze Age period. Bell barrows, distinguished by their outer ditch and elevated central mound, typically contained high-status burials, whilst the bowl barrow represents a more common form of sepulchral mound. The barrow group reflects the significance of the Wold landscape as a focus for Bronze Age burial activity and remains an important archaeological resource for understanding prehistoric settlement and mortuary practices in Yorkshire.
