Merrivale North Row
Date Added: 27th Jun 2019
Site Type: Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 27th Jun 2019. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 4 Access 4
Merrivale North Row submitted by stewart on 12th Oct 2003. Grid Ref SX 555 747
There are two, main, rows at Merrivale - North and South.
The north row consists of two lines of stones, aligned east -west and nearly 200m long.
However, the two lines of stones are only about 1m apart so you can only just walk between them. It has larger stones at the west end and a blocking stone at the east.
The southern row doesn't start or finish on the same alignment, is not parallel to the northern one and was, probably, not built at the same time.

Merrivale submitted by thecaptain on 29th Oct 2004. Merrivale site overview.
This is the view looking west overlooking the Merrivale site. I have tried to mark out where the various features are.
The stones in the foreground are remains of bronze age reaves and ancient settlement huts and field walls.

Merrivale Stone Slabs 1 and 2
Date Added: 27th Jun 2019
Site Type: Stone Row / Alignment
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 27th Jun 2019. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 4
Merrivale Stone Slabs 1 and 2 submitted by AngieLake on 1st May 2009. Slab 1 with the hole in it, here looking towards the SW and the standing stone in the distance.
(A separate photo will show the hole in close-up).
Jack Walker says that this hole and the menhir align with the place on the horizon where the winter solstice sun sets. He wonders if this is the original Winter solstice sunset alignment at Merrivale.

Merrivale SW row 3 submitted by AngieLake on 29th Oct 2004. In the foreground, Merrivale Single Row 3 (see thecaptain's overview plan) at sunset on 21st September, the day before the Autumn Equinox, 2004. In the distance, in the glare of the setting sun, can be seen the two west end stones of the southern row. Two other taller stones on the south side of that southern row are also visible above centre, and to right of pic. ('Thecaptain' has a theory that these, and other taller stones in the rows, align with the menhir at certain times of the year.) T...

Merrivale NW submitted by thecaptain on 6th Nov 2004. Just to the south of the western end of the Merrivale southern avenue are the remains of a once large cairn with retaining circle.
The stones from this cairn were removed in 1851 to mend the road, leaving just a circle of uneven ground, with a few slabs remaining in an outer bank.
