Prehistoric cairnfield 700m south west of North Ings is a Bronze Age ceremonial and funerary landscape located on the moorland of the Yorkshire Pennines. The site comprises numerous stone cairns distributed across the hillside, typical of upland burial practices during the second millennium BC. These monuments represent significant investment in funerary ritual and territorial marking by Bronze Age communities exploiting the high moorland environment. The cairnfield survives as an important archaeological resource for understanding Bronze Age settlement patterns and mortuary practices in northern England.
