This round cairn is located in High Plantation north east of Cockayne Lodge. It is in a prominent position with an excellent view down the length of Bransdale . There is inter visibility of this cairn with other cairns to the west on Bransdale Ridge and the round barrows and Cammon Stone (Standing Stone) to the east on Rudland Rigg. It is Historic England List Entry Number 1019597 and full details and description can be found there. This cairn is a bit out of the way and which ever way you approach it there is a fair bit of walking involved however, if you go on a nice sunny day you will be rewarded with some fine views looking down Bransdale, which in itself is off the beaten track as there is no through road, only two very minor access roads from the south.
