The Round cairn with peripheral berm 402m SSW of Caradon Hill summit is a Bronze Age burial monument located on the moorland of Bodmin Moor in Cornwall. The cairn comprises a circular mound of stones surrounded by a flat platform or berm, a configuration typical of funerary structures constructed during the Bronze Age period. Such peripheral berms are understood to have served both practical and ceremonial functions in Bronze Age monument construction. The site forms part of the significant concentration of prehistoric archaeology on Caradon Hill and its surrounding moorland, an area which has yielded numerous cairns and other Bronze Age remains.
