Round barrow 450m south-west of Coney Hill Farm is a scheduled monument situated on the Ravenscar Group bedrock of the Yorkshire landscape. This Bronze Age burial mound stands on sandstone, siltstone and mudstone geology typical of the Bathonian period, which has weathered into the surrounding terrain over millennia. The barrow forms part of the important archaeological heritage of the region, where such monuments represent the burial practices and territorial organisation of early metal-working communities. The scheduled area encompasses 0.08 hectares, protecting the mound itself and its immediate archaeological context from damaging development.
The monument is protected under Historic England's national scheduling system, reference number 1014082, recognising its significance as a surviving example of Bronze Age funerary architecture. Round barrows of this type typically contained cremated or inhumed burials, often accompanied by grave goods reflecting the status and beliefs of their time. Though its specific construction details and contents remain unrecorded in modern archaeological documentation, the barrow's survival on the Yorkshire uplands demonstrates the durability of these earthworks when left undisturbed.
