Round cairn on Stiperstones, 150m south of Manstone Rock is a Bronze Age burial monument located on the Stiperstones ridge in Shropshire. The cairn consists of a circular mound of stones typical of funerary structures from the Bronze Age period, when such monuments served as the focal points for ritual burial and commemoration. Its location on high ground reflects the placement preferences of Bronze Age communities, who frequently positioned burial cairns on prominent ridges and hilltops across the Welsh Marches and surrounding regions. The site forms part of the concentrated distribution of prehistoric monuments across the Stiperstones upland landscape.
