Three Howes is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument located in Yorkshire, consisting of four round barrows arranged in a southern pair formation. The barrows represent a characteristic Bronze Age burial practice, with their grouped arrangement suggesting either contemporary construction or sequential ritual use within a defined ceremonial landscape. The monument's survival as earthworks provides evidence of prehistoric settlement patterns and mortuary practices in the Yorkshire region. The site remains of archaeological importance for understanding Bronze Age burial traditions and territorial organisation in northern England.
