Round barrow 950 yards north of Drakeland Corner is a Bronze Age burial monument situated on Dartmoor in Devon. The barrow forms part of the extensive Bronze Age funerary landscape that characterises Dartmoor, dating to approximately 2000–1000 BCE. The monument survives as an earthwork mound, consistent with the typical form of round barrows across the region, which served as burial places for individuals of elevated status within their communities. Its location within the upland moorland environment reflects the pattern of Bronze Age settlement and ceremonial activity that was concentrated in such areas during the second millennium BCE.
