The site consists of a cairn—a mound of stones—containing a stone burial chamber or cist, typical of burial practices during the Bronze Age. Such monuments served as communal or individual graves and are commonly found across the moorland regions of south-western England, where they often survive as earthworks among the upland landscape.
