One of three cairns on Three Barrows, Ugborough Moor, is a Bronze Age burial monument located on Ugborough Moor in Devon. The three cairns form a significant Bronze Age cemetery complex, with this particular example representing typical funerary practice of the second millennium BC. The cairn is constructed of stone rubble and would originally have contained cremated or inhumed remains, possibly accompanied by grave goods. The survival of three cairns in close association provides valuable evidence for Bronze Age mortuary behaviour and settlement patterns on the Devonshire moors.
