Cairnfield on Barningham Moor is a Bronze Age ceremonial landscape comprising a cluster of burial cairns situated on a small knoll at Badger Way Stoop in Yorkshire. The monument represents a significant grouping of round cairns characteristic of the second millennium BCE, reflecting the funerary practices and territorial organisation of Bronze Age communities in northern England. The cairnfield's elevated position on the moor would have been a prominent marker within the upland landscape. The site remains an important archaeological record of Bronze Age settlement patterns and ritual practices on the Yorkshire moorlands.
