The Hurlers Avenue
Date Added: 26th Jan 2019
Site Type: Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue
Country: England (Cornwall)

The Hurlers Avenue submitted by theCaptain on 25th Jan 2014. Possible remains of a newly discovered stone avenue, running in an approximately north to south direction, on the moor to the north of the Hurlers stone circles.
From what I saw the two approx parallel lines of stones are about 15 metres from each other, and stones can be found at about 10 metre spacings.

Log Text: Car parking is available at SX 52178 77879. From the car park follow the track leading eastward. This one is a bit of slog, pretty much all uphill for over 3kms. The row is situated just inside the Merrivale military live firing range and it is important that you check that there is no firing and that the range is open for visitors. It’s a long way to go to find you can’t visit.

The Longstone (Piles Hill) submitted by SandyG on 27th Sep 2014. The Longstone and friend. The stone on the right is a later boundary marker. There is a history of legal disputes concerning this boundary and the new stone will have been erected to resolve one of these. A remarkable juxtaposition of stones with many stories to tell.

Recumbent stones are shown green and those whose extent could not be determined are depicted as green circles. Only 11 stones were identified at the time of the survey but given the tiny size of some stones others may survive below the turf.

Log Text: Car parking is available at SE 47973 95903. From here follow the trackway south to SE 47978 95640 and take the fork to the right and walk to around SE 47280 95708. From here cross the moorland to the row.
The considerable gap between the two groups of stones means that it is possible that this monument represents the remains of two separate settings. For this reason this site should properly be considered as a possible row.
