Round cairn with orthostatic kerb and cist 482m SE of Trewortha Farm is a Neolithic or Early Bronze Age burial monument located in Cornwall. The monument comprises a circular mound of stone constructed with an orthostatic kerb, a formal edging of upright stones that defines and contains the cairn material. At its centre lies a cist, a stone-built burial chamber typical of prehistoric funerary practice in southwestern Britain. The site represents an important example of the cairn-building tradition in Cornwall during the third and second millennia before the present era.
