Kilnsey Moor settlement is a Bronze Age archaeological site located in the Yorkshire Dales, comprising the remains of a cluster of round houses and associated field systems. The settlement reflects the pastoral and agricultural economy of Bronze Age communities in upland northern England, with evidence of both domestic occupation and land management practices characteristic of the period. The monument survives as earthwork remains visible across the moorland landscape, including the foundations and enclosures of multiple structures arranged in a dispersed settlement pattern typical of second-millennium BCE upland occupation in this region.
