Cairn adjacent to the south side of Eylesbarrow Reave is a Bronze Age burial monument located on Dartmoor in Devon. The site consists of a cairn positioned alongside the Eylesbarrow Reave, a linear stone boundary feature characteristic of Bronze Age land division systems on the moor. The cairn represents typical funerary practice of the Bronze Age period, when such stone-built mounds served as repositories for the dead and formed prominent markers across the upland landscape. The monument's proximity to the reave suggests its integration within a broader Bronze Age settlement and land management system, reflecting the organised use of Dartmoor during this period.
