New Bield round barrow and ringwork is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Yorkshire, England. The site comprises a round barrow, a characteristic mound burial structure of the Bronze Age period, alongside an associated ringwork, an earthwork defence or enclosure formed by a circular bank and ditch. Such combined monuments are relatively uncommon and suggest occupation or ritual activity extending beyond the primary funerary function of the barrow itself. The earthwork evidence indicates settlement or ceremonial use in prehistory, making New Bield significant for understanding Bronze Age land use and social practices in northern England.
