Aldergate Bank round barrow is a Bronze Age burial monument located approximately 875 metres north-west of Wether Cote in Yorkshire, England. The site comprises a round barrow, a characteristic funerary structure of the Bronze Age period that served as a burial mound for high-status individuals or family groups. Such monuments are significant indicators of settlement patterns and social organisation during the Bronze Age, and their distribution across the Yorkshire landscape reflects the region's importance as a centre of prehistoric activity. The barrow survives as an earthwork feature and remains an important archaeological record of Bronze Age burial practices in northern England.
