North Muir, Nether Cairn is a Bronze Age burial monument located in Peeblesshire, Scotland. The cairn consists of a stone mound constructed during the Bronze Age period, typical of funerary practices in prehistoric Scotland. Such monuments served as communal or individual burial structures and represent important archaeological evidence for understanding settlement patterns and ritual practices in the upland regions of the Scottish Borders during this era. The site's location in Peeblesshire reflects the broader distribution of Bronze Age cairns across the moorland and valley landscapes of south-central Scotland.
