Round cairn, 700m NNW of Bellion Farm is a Bronze Age funerary monument situated in Northumberland. The structure consists of a circular heap of stones constructed as a burial cairn, a common form of monument for elite or significant individuals during the Bronze Age period, roughly 2300 to 800 BC. Such cairns functioned as durable markers of burial sites and served to commemorate the deceased within the landscape. This example contributes to the archaeological record of Bronze Age mortuary practices in northern England and forms part of the broader distribution of cairn monuments across Northumberland's upland regions.
