This ring cairn is a Bronze Age burial monument about 240 m south-east of Cullever Steps, below Belstone Tor in the valley of the East Okement River. It survives as a bank 0.5 m high around an internal area 4.1 m across, with overall dimensions of 9.5 m east to west by 8.5 m north to south. It is a scheduled monument.
The name causes confusion on the ground: Cullever Steps are the stepping stones and fords on the river, and the pool people call Cullever Steps is a short way below them. The cairn is neither: it is about 240 m south-east of the stones.
