Round Barrow(s) in Yorkshire (North)
The monument is situated beside Five Hills Lane within a small mixed plantation. The well defined mound rises to a height of 3m on its north west side and is reduced to 1.5m on its south east side where part of the monument has been removed at some time in the past. The mound measures 24m north east to south west and 20m north west to south east (Source: Historic England).
The site offers brilliant views to the North York Moors.
