Acklam Wold barrow group is a Bronze Age funerary monument comprising two bowl barrows situated on Wooing Nab in North Yorkshire. These earthworks represent a common form of burial practice during the Bronze Age, when such mounds were constructed to mark the graves of prominent individuals. The barrows survive as distinctive rounded mounds in the landscape, reflecting the characteristic morphology of this monument type. As part of the broader distribution of Bronze Age ceremonial sites across the Yorkshire Wolds, the group contributes to understanding of prehistoric settlement patterns and burial practices in northern England.
