Two round cairns 715m south-west of Great Nodden is a prehistoric funerary monument located in Devon. The cairns date to the Bronze Age and represent a form of burial practice common across the British uplands during this period. Round cairns of this type typically comprised stone heaps constructed to mark and contain cremated or inhumed remains, often accompanied by grave goods. The survival of two cairns in close proximity at this location indicates a focus of Bronze Age funerary activity and contributes to understanding settlement and burial patterns across the Devonian landscape.
