Two round barrows and a boundary stone 800m east of Spout House Plantation is a Bronze Age funerary and territorial monument complex located in Yorkshire. The site comprises two burial mounds characteristic of the Bronze Age period, when such earthworks served as prominent markers for elite or community burials across the upland landscapes of northern England. The presence of a boundary stone suggests the site held territorial significance beyond its funerary function, possibly marking property divisions or access routes in the medieval or later period. The monument survives as a scheduled ancient monument and represents an important archaeological resource for understanding Bronze Age burial practices and landscape use in Yorkshire.
