Round cairn 417m north-west of Showery Tor is a Bronze Age burial monument located on the moorlands of Cornwall. The cairn survives as a roughly circular mound of stone rubble, characteristic of funerary structures erected during the Bronze Age period when such barrows served as focal points for communal burial and ritual activity. Its position within the Cornish moorland landscape reflects the dispersed pattern of Bronze Age settlement and ceremonial sites typical of the South West during the second millennium before Christ. The monument is recorded on the National Heritage List for England and remains an important archaeological record of Bronze Age funerary practice in the region.
