Cairn 450m north east of Raven Tor is a Bronze Age burial monument situated in Derbyshire. The cairn consists of a mound of stones constructed as a funerary structure typical of the Bronze Age period, when such monuments served as markers for elite burials and played a significant role in the ritual and ceremonial landscape. The site's positioning in the upland terrain of Derbyshire reflects the established pattern of Bronze Age burial distribution across the Pennine region, where cairns were frequently erected on higher ground. As a scheduled monument, it remains an important archaeological resource for understanding Bronze Age mortuary practices and settlement patterns in the East Midlands.
