Butterdon Hill Barrow submitted by thecaptain on 2nd Aug 2004. Butterdon Hill Barrow, Dartmoor, Devon SX657594
Large cairn just beside the Butterdon Hill stone row, at the point where the row changes direction as it drops over the edge of the ridge, and at what is the crest of the hill when seen from the north. It is possible that it was once surrounded by a ring of stones, but this cairn has been much altered over the years.
Viewed here looking towards the northwest
