Round Barrow(s) in Yorkshire (North)

This barrow, 550 metres east of Cam House in the parish of Bilsdale Midcable, is recorded as Historic England List Entry Number 1012488, and full details and description can be found there.

An extract from the list tells us that the monument includes a round barrow situated in a prominent position on the south end of Nab End Moor. The barrow has an earth and stone mound standing 0.9m high. It is round in shape and 9m in diameter. This mound was surrounded by a ditch up to 3m wide which has become filled in over the years and is no longer visible as an earthwork. There are some kerb stones visible around the base of the mound at the north east side. There is a modern cairn on the top of the mound. A modern track runs along the east side of the monument.

This site is also recorded as Pastscape Monument No 57418.
