Carved rocks, cairnfield and rubble banks on the terrace south of Scale Knoll Allotment is a Bronze Age monument complex located on Barningham Moor in North Yorkshire. The site comprises scattered cairns and rubble banks arranged across a terraced landscape, along with carved or worked stone features that suggest ritual or ceremonial significance typical of upland Bronze Age activity. The monuments occupy a terrace formation immediately east of Black Hill Gate, positioning them within a landscape of prehistoric exploitation and settlement characteristic of the moorland regions of northern England during the second millennium before the present era. The survival of these features within the moorland terrain provides evidence of Bronze Age land use and the construction practices employed by upland communities in this region.
