The two cairns forming part of a cairnfield on Longstone Hill is an ancient monument located in Devon, England. These cairns date to the Bronze Age and represent a funerary or ritual landscape typical of upland areas in southwestern England during the second millennium BC. The cairnfield itself comprises multiple stone mounds distributed across the hillside, reflecting a pattern of burial or ceremonial activity across the Bronze Age period. The cairns are constructed from loose stones gathered from the surrounding moorland, a common constructional method for monuments of this date and region.
