Cairn with a cist south of Langcombe Brook is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Devon, England. The site consists of a cairn, a mound constructed from heaped stones, which contained a cist or stone-built burial chamber typical of funerary practices during the Bronze Age period. Such monuments represent important evidence of prehistoric burial customs and settlement patterns in the Southwest of England. The cairn's survival to the present day, despite centuries of landscape use and modification, contributes to understanding Bronze Age communities in Devon.
