Round barrow 1300m east of Life Hill is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Yorkshire, England. The monument consists of a earthen mound characteristic of funerary monuments erected during the Bronze Age, a period when such barrows served as prominent markers of burial sites within the landscape. Like other round barrows of this period, it would have originally contained inhumation or cremation burials, possibly accompanied by grave goods, though its current condition and any archaeological investigations would determine what survives of these deposits. The barrow's survival and scheduling as an ancient monument reflects its archaeological importance as evidence of Bronze Age settlement patterns and mortuary practices in the Yorkshire region.
