Kerbed cairn 415m NNW of Candra is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Cornwall, England. The cairn consists of a stone mound defined by a kerb of substantial stones, a characteristic construction method employed during the Bronze Age for burial sites. Such kerbed cairns served as communal or individual burial monuments and represent important evidence of Bronze Age mortuary practice and territorial occupation in Cornwall. The monument's survival as an upstanding earthwork provides archaeological value for understanding prehistoric settlement patterns and funerary customs in the region.
