Burtree Hill round barrow is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Yorkshire, England. The monument survives as an earthwork consisting of a circular mound constructed to contain cremated or inhumed remains, typical of funerary practice during the Bronze Age period. As a scheduled ancient monument, it represents an important example of the burial tradition that characterised this region during the second and early first millennia before Christ. Such round barrows are significant indicators of social organisation and ritual practice in prehistoric Yorkshire, and their preservation contributes to understanding settlement patterns and mortuary customs of Bronze Age communities.
