Three barrows at Seamer Beacon is a Bronze Age funerary monument complex located on the North Yorkshire moors. The site comprises three burial mounds that form part of the wider archaeological landscape of the upland regions, reflecting the ritual and burial practices of prehistoric communities during the Bronze Age period. Baron Albert's Tower, which stands in proximity to these barrows, represents a later addition to the landscape, though its origins and construction date require careful archaeological interpretation. The monument complex is significant as evidence of long-term occupation and use of this elevated moorland location across different historical periods.
