Round cairn 250m south east of Winter Tor is a Bronze Age burial monument located on Dartmoor in Devon. The cairn consists of a circular mound of stones typical of funerary monuments constructed during the Bronze Age, a period when such structures served as repositories for the dead and functioned as enduring markers within the landscape. The site's position on the upland moor reflects the Bronze Age settlement and burial patterns characteristic of Dartmoor, where such monuments cluster in concentrations across the high ground. This cairn contributes to the archaeological understanding of Bronze Age funerary practice and land use in south-western England.
