The round barrow on Scawton Moor, located 390 metres north east of High Lodge in Yorkshire, is a Bronze Age funerary monument. The barrow survives as an earthwork mound and represents a burial practice common to northern England during the second millennium before the present era. Such monuments typically contained inhumed or cremated remains, often accompanied by grave goods, though the specific contents of this barrow are not documented in readily available sources. Its survival on the moor indicates the site's location in an area that has remained largely undeveloped since the Bronze Age, preserving an important element of the prehistoric funerary landscape of Yorkshire.
