Hanging Grimston barrow group is a Bronze Age burial monument comprising a bowl barrow situated approximately 650 metres south-south-west of Thixendale Grange in the Yorkshire Wolds. The barrow represents a characteristic form of funerary monument erected during the Bronze Age, when such earthen mounds served as repositories for the dead and functioned as prominent landscape markers for local communities. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork within a landscape rich in prehistoric archaeology, reflecting the concentration of burial activity across the Wolds during the second millennium before the present era. The site is recorded on the National Heritage List for England under list entry 1008480 and remains subject to scheduled monument protection.
