Ladykirk House Barrow is a Bronze Age funerary monument located approximately 470 metres north-east of Ladykirk House in Berwickshire, Scottish Borders. The barrow represents a burial tradition characteristic of the Bronze Age period, when such earthen mounds were constructed as prominent landscape features to mark the graves of individuals or families of status. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork, though like many prehistoric burial mounds its original height and precise dimensions have been modified through millennia of weathering and agricultural activity. As a scheduled ancient monument, it forms part of the archaeological heritage of the Berwickshire region and contributes to understanding Bronze Age funerary practices and settlement patterns in the Scottish Borders.
