Two round cairns 590m and 610m east of Burn Brae is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Northumberland. The two cairns represent typical examples of prehistoric burial structures from the Bronze Age period, constructed as stone mounds to mark and contain cremated or inhumed remains. Their positioning on the upland landscape reflects the Bronze Age practice of situating burial cairns in prominent locations across the northern English moorlands. These monuments form part of the substantial archaeological record of Bronze Age activity in Northumberland and contribute to understanding settlement patterns and burial practices in prehistoric northern Britain.
