Bridge of Badnagie is a Neolithic chambered cairn located in Caithness, Scotland, situated approximately 610 metres north-north-west of Bridge of Badnagie. The monument dates to the Neolithic period and represents an important example of the burial and ceremonial architecture characteristic of northern Scottish prehistoric communities. As a chambered cairn, the structure would have served as a communal burial monument, with an internal stone chamber designed to receive the remains of multiple individuals over an extended period of use. The cairn form and chambered arrangement reflect the architectural conventions of Neolithic funerary practice in the far north of Scotland during the third millennium BC.
