Most of these can be found with a bit of diligent search near to the Barbrook circles.
Unfortunately my list of the co-ordinates for the Big Moor Sites are logged in a small red notebook lost somewhere on Big Moor (plus a roll of film)! If any body finds them I would appreciate their return. It was near Barbrook 2.
All the sites lay within the area SK275754 to SK285754 by SK276768 to SK286768
Can any eagle eyed readers identify any of the sites shown here more exactly?
