The two standing stones and round cairn south of Crooklands is a Neolithic or Bronze Age monument complex located in Westmorland. The site comprises two upright stones and an associated circular cairn, forming a landscape feature typical of prehistoric monumental activity in the Lake District region. Such monuments are generally attributed to the period between approximately 4000 and 1500 BC, when communities erected standing stones and constructed burial cairns as focal points for ritual and commemorative purposes. The survival of these elements together provides evidence of sustained prehistoric settlement and ceremonial practice in the local area.
