Two round cairns 880m north east of Wilkwood East is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Northumberland, England. The site consists of two stone cairns, characteristic of burial structures erected during the Bronze Age period when such mounded monuments were commonly constructed across the upland regions of northern Britain.
