Mossy Moor Reservoir
Mossy Moor Reservoir submitted by rich32 : Mossy Moor Reservoir, nr Hebden, North Yorkshire (SE0286364320) Again another site not on Defra as a scheduled monument. Very near to the edge of the reservoir and could easily have been under water in years gone by. Grassington A & B stone circles are directly north and Dumpit Hill stone circle is directly south. This photo is looking north (Vote or comment on this photo)
Ring Cairn in North Yorkshire.
Possible stone circle or ring cairn next to Mossy Moor reservoir.

A number of small stones covered by grass are set in an arc, one stone is inset & still upright. The site lies directly south of Grassington A and B stone circles and is a quarter of a mile north of Dumpit Hill stones circle. The site is 100 meters away from a nearby footpath.

This site does not appear to be on the scheduled monument list.
