Two cairns, centred 82m and 110m SW of Caradon Hill summit, is a Bronze Age funerary monument located on Caradon Hill in Cornwall. The cairns represent a characteristic form of burial practice from the Bronze Age period, when prominent hilltop locations were frequently selected for the placement of these stone-built sepulchral structures. Both cairns remain visible as earthwork and stone features within the landscape, contributing to the archaeological record of Bronze Age ritual and commemorative practices in the upland regions of Cornwall. The monument's location on this elevated terrain reflects the strategic positioning of such funerary sites within the wider Bronze Age settlement pattern of southwest England.
