Black Tor SW
Date Added: 27th Jan 2019
Site Type: Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue

Visited: Yes on 7th Jul 2013. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 4 Access 3
Black Tor SW submitted by SandyG on 26th Sep 2014. Double stone row leading from the cairn. The grey arrows show the position of stones in the northern row and the red arrow a stone in the southern row. This row is composed entirely of small unimpressive stones and is a powerful reminder that this type of monument is often far from visually spectacular.
