Square barrow in Broxa Forest, 720m south west of Surgate Brow Farm, is a Bronze Age burial monument located in the North York Moors. The barrow takes the form of a square earthwork, a form of funerary structure that was constructed during the Bronze Age period. Such square barrows represent an important variant of prehistoric burial practice in northern England, distinct from the more commonly documented round barrow tradition. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork feature within the forested landscape of the North York Moors and remains a significant example of Bronze Age funerary archaeology in Yorkshire.
