Two round barrows on Yearsley Moor 260m SSE of High Lions' Lodge is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument located in North Yorkshire. The barrows are situated on open moorland in the upland landscape typical of prehistoric burial practices in the region, where such monuments cluster along ridgelines and elevated terrain. Round barrows of this period commonly contained inhumed or cremated remains, often accompanied by grave goods, and served as territorial and ancestral markers within the Bronze Age landscape. The survival of two distinct barrows at this location indicates a significant prehistoric burial site, contributing to the archaeological evidence for settlement patterns and mortuary practices in the Yorkshire uplands during the second and early first millennia before the Common Era.
