Cairn in Devon
A turf-covered round cairn situated on the crest of a ridge between Cocks Hill and Lynch Tor. The cairn mound measures 19.7 metres in diameter and stands up to 1.4 metres high on the north side and 0.7 metres high on the south. A shallow hollow in the centre of the mound suggests partial early excavation or robbing.
