Small cairnfield with carved rocks north of the plantation on Weston Moor is a Bronze Age ceremonial and funerary landscape situated on the moorland north west of Weston Moor Cottage in Yorkshire. The site comprises a scatter of stone cairns, characteristic of upland prehistoric settlement and burial practices, and is distinguished by the presence of rock carvings, which indicate ritual or symbolic significance typical of Bronze Age monumental activity. The carved rocks represent evidence of artistic expression and suggest the site held particular importance within the broader cairnfield complex. Such moorland cairnfields are amongst the most valuable archaeological records of Bronze Age land use, burial custom, and territorial organisation in northern England.
