Coombes Edge submitted by wmh : Coombes Edge Ring Cairn (Vote or comment on this photo)
A ring cairn located on a ridge between Coombes Edge and Cown Edge. Shown on the Ordnance Survey map and scheduled as Historic England List ID1009048. Brown Low and Kinder Low are visible in the distance. The cairn is located adjacent to a disused quarry and as a result has been disturbed by stone gathering.
