Ring cairn at Cogden Gill is a Bronze Age burial monument located approximately 200 metres south of Grinton Lodge in Yorkshire. The site consists of a ring cairn, a form of burial structure characteristic of the Bronze Age period, comprising a circular arrangement of stones surrounding a central burial deposit. Ring cairns of this type are found across upland areas of northern England and represent important evidence for funerary practices and settlement patterns during the Bronze Age. The monument's survival in the Pennine landscape provides archaeological testimony to the use of high moorland areas during prehistory.
