Round cairn 200m south-south-west of Bluegill Fold is a prehistoric funerary monument situated in Westmorland, England. The site consists of a circular stone cairn, a characteristic burial form of the Bronze Age, built to cover and mark the grave of one or more individuals. Such cairns are among the most common and enduring monuments of the Bronze Age landscape in northern England, indicating settlement patterns and ritual practices across the upland regions. The monument's survival to the present day, despite agricultural and landscape changes, demonstrates the durability of cairn construction and its significance in understanding prehistoric mortality practices and territorial organisation in the region.
