Round barrow on Three Howes Rigg, 310m south east of White Cross is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Yorkshire, England. The monument comprises a circular earthwork typical of round barrows constructed during the Bronze Age, when such burial structures became the predominant form of funerary architecture across Britain. The barrow's preservation as an upstanding earthwork demonstrates its continued archaeological significance and contributes to understanding Bronze Age mortuary practices and landscape use in the region. Its location within the Three Howes Rigg group reflects the tendency for barrows to be constructed in clusters, suggesting repeated use of particular landscape zones for burial over extended periods.
