Cairn 1500m north west of Newbridge Farm is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Derbyshire, England. The site comprises a cairn, a mounded structure constructed from stone, which represents a form of funerary architecture characteristic of the Bronze Age period in upland regions of Britain. Such cairns typically functioned as burial monuments or ceremonial markers for communities during the second and third millennia before the Common Era. The monument's survival in the upland landscape of Derbyshire reflects the preservation potential of such sites in areas of lower agricultural disturbance, and it remains an important archaeological record of Bronze Age mortuary practice and settlement patterns in the Peak District region.
