The cairn consists of a mound of stones constructed during the second millennium BC as a burial structure, reflecting the funerary practices typical of Bronze Age communities in south-western England. Such round cairns commonly contained cremated or inhumed human remains, often accompanied by grave goods, and served as prominent markers within the Bronze Age landscape. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork and represents an important example of the burial monuments that characterise the Bronze Age period in Devon.
