Cairn 550m south-west of Raddick Hill summit is a Bronze Age burial monument forming part of a substantial cairnfield in Devon. The structure consists of a mound of stones typical of barrow construction from the second millennium BCE, situated within a landscape of multiple contemporary monuments that attest to intensive ritual and funerary use of the moorland during prehistory. This cairn, along with its associated field of similar monuments, represents an important archaeological assemblage documenting Bronze Age settlement patterns and burial practices in the South West of England.
