Notes: Cairn in middle of length of stone row. "The northern part of the row is aligned precisely in the centre of the cairn circle, both of which would therefore seem part of the original design. The cairn is not visible from the south end of the southern extension of the row. This extension consists of four general alignments more of which focus on the cairn circle, and the northern end of the extension is tangential to the west side of the circle. These factors, and the larger size of the stones in the northern extension of the row, suggest two phases of construction." Butler Cairn 1 (Vol 3 54.18).

Butler map: 54.4
Notes: The Stone Rows of Great Britain states: "This line of seven stones seems to be artificial and certainly looks like a stone row. The proximity of a number of small cairns further enhances this interpretation as does the visual relationship with Plymouth Sound. The stones however lies between two reaves (prehistoric boundary banks) and close to other boundaries. The possibility of this feature being an unfinished or partly robbed field boundary cannot therefore be wholly discounted." The author visited this site on 16/07/2021 and logged the lcoation of 6 of the 7 stones of this row (must have missed one): SX 63748 61049, SX 63750 61056, SX 63751 61058, SX 63750 61060, SX 63751 61063, SX 63751 61065.

Also visible towards the centre of the circle is a rectangular pit which is probably evidence of excavation. Turner F22, Type Fii
