Round barrow on Gerrick Moor is a Bronze Age burial monument located on moorland in Yorkshire, approximately 680 metres north-west of Black Beck Swang. It forms part of a group of four barrows known collectively as Robin Hood's Butts, a designation reflecting the folklore traditions associated with the area rather than archaeological evidence. The monument is a typical round barrow of the Bronze Age period, constructed as an earthwork mound to serve as a burial site and marker of social importance within the contemporary landscape. As a scheduled ancient monument, it remains an important resource for understanding Bronze Age funerary practices and settlement patterns on the Yorkshire uplands.
