Round barrow in Broxa Forest 800m south west of Highdales is a Bronze Age burial monument situated in the North York Moors. The barrow is a substantial earthwork comprising a circular mound that would have contained inhumation or cremation burials typical of the Bronze Age period, roughly dating between 2200 and 700 BCE. Such monuments are characteristic of funerary practice during this era and represent significant archaeological evidence for understanding settlement patterns and social organisation in prehistoric Yorkshire. The barrow's survival within the forested landscape preserves important stratigraphic and artefactual potential for further archaeological investigation.
