Round cairn 35m east of summit of Long Scar Pike is a Bronze Age funerary monument situated in Westmorland in the English Lake District. The cairn comprises a circular mound of stones constructed as a burial marker during the Bronze Age period, when such monumental cairns were commonly erected across upland regions of northern England. Its location on the fell, positioned east of the summit of Long Scar Pike, suggests it formed part of a broader pattern of Bronze Age burial practice in this landscape. The monument survives as a valuable archaeological record of prehistoric mortuary practice and settlement patterns in the upland zones of Westmorland.
