What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Cairnfield on Howl Moor 510m south of Wheeldale Lodge, including an unenclosed hut circle settlement, field system and round burial cairns as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Round burial cairns, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age, are part of a wider prehistoric landscape including hut circles and field systems. This site provides evidence of both domestic and funerary activity in a moorland setting during the first millennium BC.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
