Basin Howe is a round barrow located immediately north of Wellspring Farm in Yorkshire, England. The monument dates to the Bronze Age and represents a burial mound of the type commonly constructed during the second millennium BCE across the Yorkshire landscape. The barrow survives as an earthwork of circular form, characteristic of funerary monuments from this period that typically contained inhumation or cremation burials within a central chamber or grave. Such monuments are significant archaeological features that illuminate burial practices and the social organisation of Bronze Age communities in northern England.
