Round barrow 180m NNE of St Wilfred's Church is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Yorkshire, England. The barrow survives as an earthwork mound and represents a funerary structure of the type commonly constructed during the Bronze Age, when such monuments served as repositories for elite burials and functioned as territorial markers within the landscape. The site's proximity to St Wilfred's Church demonstrates the longevity of this location as a focal point within the parish, as medieval ecclesiastical foundations were frequently sited near or upon earlier prehistoric monuments. The barrow's survival and statutory protection indicate its significance as an archaeological record of Bronze Age burial practice and social organisation in the region.
