Round barrow 400m south east of Hill Fort Windypit is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Yorkshire, England. The monument represents a funerary tradition widespread across Britain during the Bronze Age, when such barrows served as substantial ceremonial and sepulchral structures for individuals of elevated status within their communities. The barrow's proximity to Windypit Hill Fort suggests a continued use of this landscape across successive prehistoric periods, though the barrow itself predates the Iron Age fortification. As a scheduled ancient monument, it remains an important archaeological resource for understanding Bronze Age burial practices and settlement patterns in the Yorkshire region.
