Cairn 1 km west-north-west of Old Stell Crag is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Northumberland, England. The site consists of a cairn, a mound constructed from stones accumulated over an inhumed burial or burials, typical of funerary practice during the Bronze Age period. Such cairns represent significant evidence of prehistoric settlement patterns and mortuary behaviour in the upland regions of northern England. The monument's survival and statutory protection under the National Heritage List for England designation reflects its importance to understanding Bronze Age communities and their relationship with the Northumbrian landscape.
