Collard Tor circle submitted by Catrinm on 15th Sep 2024. Arc of circle ?
(View photo, vote or add a comment)
Log Text: It's quite difficult to see what's what here - it looks like here could be a genuine circle ( as indicated on the MP map) as a couple of arcs and fallen stones suggest this . It has been said that the two larger erect stones are a gatepost but they seem much too narrow for this. If it is a cairn circle it is very big compared to most on Dartmoor.

Log Text: This is so accessible and well worth a visit. It is listed by pastscape as Neolithic or early Bronze Age so whether its is a burial chamber/chambered cairn as some allege or a rock shelter - it is OG !

Burford Down Stone Row
Date Added: 2nd Nov 2024
Site Type: Stone Row / Alignment
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 2nd Nov 2024
Burford Down Stone Row submitted by Tom_Bullock on 9th Jul 2002. The Burford Down stone row, one of the finest in
Dartmoor, shows evidence of recent damage by whatever farmer is running
huge tractors across the fields. S(he) has been driving right through
the rows (perpendicular to them) along several tracks. I saw evidence of
at least 3 stones that had been dislodged and pushed aside by the wheels
of the tractor. I don't know if there is a procedure for reporting such
damage, or even if the farmer is liable for such damage. I have never, in my 12 year...

Log Text: What was clear today is that the tie led to a sea reveal statue circle. even if the circle is not exactly accurate it is in the right place - the slight on the water of Plymouth Sound was suddenly visible as you access the circle.

Merrivale Menhir submitted by AngieLake on 10th Apr 2015. This shot shows the "smaller pillar" that Butler describes, in relation to the menhir and the cairn 6 pit. He says: "The menhir, 3.1 m high, still stands in its original position, 42 m almost due south from the centre of the stone circle. There is no evidence that the smaller pillar, 2 m long, lying a few meters away ever stood upright, but it was erected in 1895 in the pit alongside, toppling again a few years later. Between these two stones cairn C6 (3.0 x 0.3 m) has a central pit. Three st...
