Round barrow on Wheeldale Moor, 1250m west of Wheeldale Lodge is a Bronze Age burial monument situated on the North York Moors. The barrow takes the form of a circular mound of earth and stone, a typical funerary structure from the second millennium BCE. Such monuments are among the most common archaeological remains of the Bronze Age in northern England and served as burial places for members of prehistoric communities. The site's location on the open moorland, characteristic of many Bronze Age barrows in this region, reflects the contemporary use of upland areas for both habitation and ceremonial purposes.
