Tumulus W of Leader's Spinney is a Bronze Age burial mound located in Norfolk, England. The monument forms part of a group of barrows within the Leader's Spinney complex, which represents significant prehistoric funerary activity in the region. As with other tumuli of its type and period, it would have served as a ceremonial burial monument, likely containing inhumation or cremation deposits associated with Bronze Age ritual practices. The site's archaeological designation reflects its importance as part of Norfolk's Bronze Age burial landscape, though detailed stratigraphic information from excavation records would be required to establish precise constructional details and chronological refinement within the Bronze Age period.
