Round barrow on Maw Rigg is a Bronze Age burial mound located in the moorland landscape approximately 1.5 kilometres south west of High Langdale End in Yorkshire. The barrow survives as a substantial earthwork comprising a raised circular mound, typical of funerary monuments constructed during the Bronze Age period. Such monuments were erected to mark and contain high-status burials, often accompanied by grave goods, and served as enduring territorial markers within the landscape. The site's position on open moorland reflects the burial practices and settlement patterns of Bronze Age communities in the Pennine uplands of Yorkshire.
