Round cairn 300m south west of Underwood is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument situated in Cumberland. The cairn consists of a roughly circular mound of stones, characteristic of burial structures erected during the prehistoric periods when such monuments served as repositories for the dead and functioned as territorial markers on the landscape. The precise dating and cultural attribution of the monument remain difficult to establish without archaeological investigation, though its form and location within the upland terrain of the county are consistent with known patterns of prehistoric settlement and burial practice in northern England.
