Round cairn 740m WSW of Crazy Well Pool is a Bronze Age burial monument located on Dartmoor in Devon. The cairn survives as a circular stone mound constructed during the Bronze Age period, when such monuments served as repositories for the remains of the dead and functioned as territorial markers within the landscape. The site's preservation within the moorland environment has allowed its physical form to endure, contributing to the archaeological record of funerary practices on Dartmoor during the second and early first millennia before Christ. The monument is designated as a nationally important heritage asset in recognition of its archaeological significance and its role in understanding Bronze Age settlement and burial patterns across the upland regions of south-western England.
