Round barrow 380m north-north-west of Easthorpe Lodge is a scheduled monument situated on the Corallian bedrock of the Oxfordian period. The underlying geology comprises limestone, sandstone, siltstone and mudstone, typical of this Jurassic formation in Yorkshire. This Bronze Age burial mound occupies 0.05 hectares and lies within the broader archaeological landscape of the region, where similar monuments mark the territorial and ritual geography of Bronze Age communities.
The barrow represents a funerary tradition spanning roughly 2200 to 1500 BCE, when elevated earthen mounds served as permanent markers for elite burials and focal points for ancestral veneration. Its position on well-drained Corallian deposits would have offered a stable foundation for construction and visibility across the surrounding terrain. The monument survives as a buried or earthwork feature and retains archaeological potential beneath its surface.
Protected by Historic England under scheduled monument reference 1014569, the site is legally safeguarded against unauthorised disturbance or development. This designation recognises its significance as evidence of Bronze Age funerary practice and social organisation. The barrow at SE 74062 71956 contributes to our understanding of prehistoric settlement patterns and land use across the Yorkshire Wolds and their underlying Jurassic geology.
