Prehistoric embanked avenue and eight adjacent round cairns 750m ENE of Sparretts Farm is a Bronze Age ritual and funerary monument complex located in Cornwall. The site comprises a linear embanked avenue, likely serving as a processional way or ceremonial approach, accompanied by eight round cairns positioned adjacent to it, which would have functioned as burial monuments or ritual structures typical of the Bronze Age period. Such embanked avenues with associated cairn groups represent important evidence of Bronze Age ceremonial practices and social organisation in south-western Britain. The monument is now designated and protected as a scheduled ancient monument of national importance.
