Hanging Grimston barrow group is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Yorkshire, England, comprising at least one substantial bowl barrow situated approximately 100 metres north-east of Wold Farm. The barrow represents the funerary practices characteristic of the Bronze Age period, when such earthen mounds were constructed to mark elite or community burials across the Yorkshire Wolds. The monument survives as a discrete earthwork within the wider landscape of prehistoric settlement and ceremonial activity in the region, and its preservation has secured it official protection under the National Heritage List for England.
