Round barrow 400m south east of Hill Fort Windypit is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Yorkshire, England. The barrow forms part of the archaeological landscape associated with Windypit Hill Fort, a hillfort of Iron Age origin, and represents the earlier use of this elevated terrain during the Bronze Age period.
