Three round cairns 70m east of Rydal Beck is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument located in Westmorland in the Lake District region of north-west England. The site comprises three circular stone cairns arranged in the upland landscape east of Rydal Beck, representing a burial tradition characteristic of prehistoric communities in the region. Such cairn groupings typically date to the second and third millennia BC, though precise dating for this specific monument group has not been firmly established through archaeological investigation.
