Round cairn 80m south west of Little Hound Tor summit is a Bronze Age funerary monument located on Dartmoor in Devon. The cairn survives as a circular mound of stones typical of Dartmoor's extensive Bronze Age burial landscape, dating to the second millennium BCE. Such monuments represent the ritual interment practices of early metal-working communities and form part of the concentrated distribution of barrows across the moorland plateau. The site's preservation within the upland environment contributes to the archaeological record of Bronze Age settlement and funerary customs in the South West peninsula.
