The cairn consists of a mound of stones constructed as a funerary or ceremonial deposit, typical of Bronze Age mortuary practice in south-western England. Its position above the East Glaze Brook reflects the Bronze Age tendency to place such monuments within the landscape in relation to natural topographical features and water sources. The site remains an important record of prehistoric funerary traditions and settlement patterns in Devon during the second millennium before the common era.
