Bull Ring is a henge monument located in Derbyshire, England, dating to the Neolithic period. The site comprises a henge structure alongside an oval barrow and bowl barrow, representing a complex of ritual and funerary monuments that illustrate the multi-phase use of the location across prehistory. The henge itself would have functioned as a ceremonial or gathering place, whilst the barrows indicate subsequent Bronze Age funerary activity at the same location. Together, these monuments demonstrate the continuity of ritual significance at this Derbyshire site from the Neolithic through to the Bronze Age.
