Two adjacent ring cairns on Low Moor is a Neolithic or Bronze Age monument located in the uplands of Yorkshire, northwest of High Eskeleth. The site consists of two circular stone cairns positioned in close proximity to one another, typical of Bronze Age funerary practices on the moorland plateaux of northern England. Such ring cairns commonly functioned as burial monuments or ceremonial structures, reflecting the ritual landscape of prehistoric communities who exploited these high ground areas. The monument's survival on the open moorland has enabled its preservation as an example of Bronze Age funerary archaeology in the Pennine uplands.
