Southern is a round barrow, one of two prehistoric burial mounds forming the Row Howes group, located in Yorkshire near East Moor Farm. The barrow dates to the Bronze Age and represents a significant funerary monument type characteristic of the period when ritual burial practices involved the construction of earthen mounds over cremated or inhumed remains. As part of a paired monument complex, it provides archaeological evidence of Bronze Age settlement and burial patterns in the region. The barrow survives as an upstanding earthwork, contributing to the understanding of prehistoric land use and ceremonial practice in Yorkshire.
