Just interested in what The Eds/Cumbrian Stoneheads think of the cairn below the Roman Fort at Hardknott?
Don't think we'll ever get a definitive answer as to whether this actually was a Bronze Age site due to the poor state of preservation, but I would certainly (tentatively) agree with Pastscape that the prominent siting suggests this is a possibility and furthermore too exposed for a sheepfold?
For reference Pastscape (MONUMENT NO. 984049) states:
Situated on a false crest overlooking Eskdale at NY 2171 0131, some
140 m to the SW of Hardknott Roman fort, there is a mound of stones,
mainly turf covered, which measures about 12 m in diameter and up to
0.4 m high. Its centre is hollowed out to ground level though it
contains some loose stone. A path, possibly on the line of the Roman
road, cuts across the S tangent. The prominence of the position
suggests this feature may be a burial cairn. However, on Dymond's
plan (1a) it is annotated, possibly correctly, as a `ruined fold',
and is described in the text as a ring of cobbled stones 17 ft
internally and 8 ft wide. It was tested by digging but no finds were
made. (1)
