Round barrow 560m NNW of Maidensworth Farm is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Yorkshire. The barrow survives as an earthwork mound and represents a funerary structure typical of the Bronze Age period, when such monuments were constructed across the Yorkshire landscape as interment sites for individuals of local significance. Like other round barrows in the region, it would originally have contained a burial deposit, though its internal structure and contents are not documented in readily accessible archaeological records. The site's preservation as an upstanding earthwork contributes to the archaeological understanding of Bronze Age settlement patterns and funerary practices in Yorkshire.
