Bowl barrow and archery butt 231m south-west of Wold Newton Church is a Neolithic or Bronze Age burial monument located in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The site comprises a bowl barrow, a round burial mound characteristic of later prehistoric funerary practice, which was later modified by the addition of an archery butt, evidence of post-medieval recreational use. The barrow's earthwork remains visible in the landscape, demonstrating the dual historical significance of the site across different periods of settlement and land use. As a scheduled monument, it represents an important survival of prehistoric ritual and burial practice in the Yorkshire Wolds region.
