Round barrow on Highwood Brow, 760m north east of Brompton Moor House is a Bronze Age funerary monument situated in Yorkshire. The barrow survives as an earthwork mound characteristic of the burial practices of the Bronze Age period, when such structures were constructed as monuments to the dead across the English landscape. Its location on the moorland of this upland region reflects the typical distribution of Bronze Age barrows in northern England, where prominent hilltop and ridge-top positions were often selected for these prominent markers. The monument is recorded on the National Heritage List for England and remains an important archaeological record of prehistoric burial practices in the Yorkshire landscape.
