Trebetha Hill is a Bronze Age cairn located approximately 140 metres north-north-west of Mill Rings Settlement in Peeblesshire, Scotland. The monument consists of a stone mound typical of burial cairns constructed during the Bronze Age, a period when such structures served as repositories for cremated or inhumed remains and functioned as prominent territorial markers within the landscape. The cairn forms part of a wider archaeological complex in the area and contributes to understanding Bronze Age settlement patterns and funerary practices in the Scottish Borders region.
