Two round cairns 768m and 778m ENE of Sparretts Farm is a Neolithic or Bronze Age funerary monument located in Cornwall, England. The site consists of two distinct circular stone cairns positioned on the moorland landscape east-northeast of the farm, representing a form of burial monument common to prehistoric Britain. Such cairns typically served as repositories for cremated remains and were constructed by stacking stones gathered from the surrounding terrain. The monument's precise dating and internal structure remain subjects of archaeological study, though its form and moorland setting are consistent with Bronze Age funerary practices in the Southwest of England.
