Round cairn, 800m north east of Lowshield Green, is a Bronze Age burial monument situated in Northumberland. The site consists of a circular mound of stone, typical of cairn construction from the Bronze Age period, when such structures served as funerary monuments for individual or small group interments. The cairn's positioning within the upland landscape of Northumberland reflects the Bronze Age use of elevated terrain for burial sites, a practice common across northern Britain during the second millennium before Christ. As a designated heritage asset, the monument contributes to understanding Bronze Age mortuary practices and settlement patterns in the region.
