What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Round cairn on Dunmail Raise 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 cairn on Dunmail Raise is a Bronze Age funerary monument, likely dating to between 2000 and 800 BCE. Its location on a prominent upland pass suggests it may have had ritual or symbolic significance in prehistoric trade or territorial boundaries.
