Low Moor round barrow is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Yorkshire, England. The barrow survives as an earthwork mound typical of funerary structures erected during the second and early first millennia before the Common Era, when such monuments were widespread across the upland and lowland regions of Britain. Like other round barrows of its class, it would have served as a burial place for individuals of status within Bronze Age communities, though the specific details of its construction and any finds associated with it remain subject to archaeological record. The monument's survival into the present day, despite centuries of landscape modification, attests to the durability of these earthwork structures and their significance within the archaeological heritage of Yorkshire.
