Gibbet Moor South submitted by Vicky
Gibbet Moor South Ancient settlement in Derbyshire

This site is almost impossible to locate on the featureless Gibbet Moor and definitely requires the help of a GPS. Discovered in 1983 it is composed of a rough bank and several fallen stones which may once have been standing. Only one stone still stands, leaning in the bank. Four slabs towards the south may be a ruined entrance. Some have suggested the site may have been a stone circle, but it was planned by the RCHM-E and was reported to be a domestic site. (Barnatt 1990)

    This is a fantastic stone circle in an out-of-the-way location on the featureless Gibbet Moor. A GPS is definitely recommended when visiting it as there are no real landmarks to help finding it. The moor is very boggy and there are numerous holes and channels which are easily hidden in the moorland grass. Nevertheless it is definitely worth a visit and can be combined with a trip to the nearby site at Gibbet Moor South, Hob Hurst's House and Park Gate stone circle.
