Gerrick Moor is a late prehistoric enclosed settlement comprising a sub-rectangular enclosure situated approximately 710 metres south-west of Osbourne House in Yorkshire. The monument represents settlement activity dating to the later Bronze Age or Iron Age period, evidenced by its defensive or boundary earthwork construction. The sub-rectangular form of the enclosure suggests deliberate planning for domestic or pastoral purposes, characteristic of later prehistoric land management strategies in upland Yorkshire. The site survives as an upstanding earthwork feature and contributes to understanding prehistoric settlement patterns and territorial organisation in the region.
