Cairnfield in Hagg Wood, Honley is a Bronze Age funerary monument consisting of a group of burial cairns located in the Pennine uplands of West Yorkshire. The site comprises multiple stone cairns, which represent a form of communal or individual burial practice typical of the Bronze Age period, roughly 2200 to 800 BC. These upland cairn fields are characteristic of the moorland regions of northern England and reflect the settlement and burial patterns of Bronze Age communities who exploited the high ground for pastoral and subsistence activities. The monument remains archaeologically significant as evidence of prehistoric mortuary practice and the use of the Pennine landscape during the second millennium BC.
