Peat Hill round cairn is a Bronze Age burial monument located on Glaisdale High Moor in North Yorkshire. The site consists of a round cairn, a characteristic burial form of the Bronze Age period, constructed from stone and positioned in the moorland landscape northwest of Pannierman Bridgestone. Such cairns typically served as communal or individual burial structures and represent important evidence of prehistoric settlement and funerary practices in the upland regions of northern England. The monument's survival on the high moor contributes to our understanding of Bronze Age land use and social organisation in Yorkshire.
