East Field crop mark site is a prehistoric monument complex located approximately 300 metres south-southeast of Northorpe in Yorkshire, England. The site comprises evidence of a Neolithic henge monument, subsequently reused and reinterpreted during the Bronze Age as a ringwork, as revealed through aerial crop mark photography. The monument represents a significant phase of settlement and ritual activity spanning from the Neolithic period through to the Bronze Age, demonstrating continuity of land use and adaptation of earlier structures for new purposes across these prehistoric epochs. The site's survival as buried archaeological evidence, recoverable through geophysical survey and cropmark analysis, contributes to understanding of prehistoric monumental construction and settlement patterns in Yorkshire.
