The Group of round cairns, 40m east of Hob's Nick, is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Northumberland. The site comprises multiple circular cairns constructed from stone, typical of burial practices during the Bronze Age period when such monuments were widely erected across the upland regions of northern England. These cairns represent evidence of prehistoric settlement and mortuary ritual in the landscape, contributing to understanding of Bronze Age communities and their use of the Northumberland uplands. The monument's survival as a registered historic asset reflects its archaeological importance for studying burial customs and territorial organisation during the second millennium before the common era.
