Cairnfield is a Bronze Age funerary monument located 360 metres north of Eden House in Yorkshire, England. The site comprises a standing stone, a round barrow, and a round cairn, representing evidence of ritual and burial practices from the Bronze Age period. The monument lies within an enclosed field and its northern boundary forms part of the medieval Cucket deer park, demonstrating how this ancient ritual landscape was integrated into later medieval land management. The survival of these prehistoric features alongside the earthwork boundaries of the medieval deer park provides archaeological evidence of continuity and reuse of significant landscape locations across more than two thousand years.
