Cairn south-west of Lower Hartor Tor is a Bronze Age funerary monument located on Dartmoor in Devon. The cairn consists of a mound of stones raised over a grave or graves, typical of burial practices prevalent during the Bronze Age across south-western England. Such monuments are important archaeological indicators of settlement patterns and ritual activity on the upland plateaux of Dartmoor during the second millennium BC. The site's location within the wider landscape of Bronze Age cairn fields contributes to understanding prehistoric land use and territorial organisation on the moor.
