Maybe they watched the Winter Solstice sun set between them?
I believe they are Chinkwell and Honeybag Tors - NE of Widecombe - which lie to the east of Hamel Down.

I think I really need to get 'The Dartmoor Atlas of Antiquities Vol5' maybe an eBay Xmas gift to myself this year. | AngieLake
(2008-11-29) | Hi Matt .... Does that mean you also have Vols 1, 2, 3, and 4? ;-) If not, I'd recommend them, too. |
