Round cairn 527m SSW of Caradon Hill summit is a Bronze Age funerary monument located on Bodmin Moor in Cornwall. The cairn survives as a circular mound of stones constructed as a burial deposit, typical of the upland barrow cemeteries established across southwest England during the second millennium before Christ. Its position within the dense concentration of Bronze Age monuments in the Caradon Hill area reflects the prehistoric use of Bodmin Moor as a significant ritual and burial landscape. The monument remains archaeologically important as evidence of Bronze Age mortuary practice and territorial organisation in Cornwall.
