Carved rocks, cairnfield and rubble banks on the terrace south of Scale Knoll Allotment, immediately east of Black Hill Gate, Barningham Moor, is a Bronze Age funerary and settlement complex located on the North York Moors. The site comprises a number of cairns, rock carvings, and associated rubble banks distributed across a terrace, representing evidence of prehistoric burial practices and land use on the moorland. The carved rocks and cairn field are characteristic features of Bronze Age activity on the Yorkshire moors, where such monuments often cluster in favourable upland locations. The rubble banks suggest additional structural remains, possibly relating to settlement activity or field systems contemporary with or subsequent to the primary funerary use of the site.
