Heslerton Brow barrow group is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Yorkshire, situated approximately 250 metres north-west of Wold Barn. The site comprises a bowl barrow, a characteristic burial mound form of the Bronze Age period, which would have functioned as a grave marker and ritual focal point for the local community. Bowl barrows of this type represent the dominant funerary architecture of the Bronze Age in northern England, typically constructed by heaping earth and chalk over cremated or inhumed remains. The monument remains an important archaeological resource for understanding Bronze Age burial practices and settlement patterns in the Yorkshire Wolds region.
