Guidance for walkers: The monuments featured in this database are archaeological treasures and need to be protected and preserved - please do not disturb any sites. Please check access and firing times before visiting sites, not all sites listed are on open access land. Firing ranges and boundaries of open access areas are marked on the OL28 OS Dartmoor Explorer map. Please stick to the country code and consider giving support to the numerous agencies that help to keep Dartmoor a fabulous natural and historic environment!
About the database listings: In all listings clicking on the photo or the site name will open a page for the site with a larger photo and further details from the database. The database now has over 6680 records covering nearly all publicly listed sites on Dartmoor including around 4800 round houses. This level of detail is of interest to archaeologists but tends to swamp listings of sites more likely to be of interest for walkers. For this reason, the listings default to around 550 core sites only. These are the stone circles, stone rows and the ring cairns listed by Turner. The default search radius is 2 km. The controls below the map can be used to start a new search by entering a 6- or 8-digit reference (without the prefix "SX"). The search radius can be specified and you can add incremental Display layers of detail on top of the core sites. If using a more detailed layer you will need to decrease the search radius to avoid getting hundreds of search results.
- Core sites Default listing of core sites consisting of stone circles & rows and some of the major ring cairns.
- Plus cairns adds approx. 1000 cairns and other minor sites not included in the core listings but excluding round houses.
- Plus round houses adds approx. 4800 round houses.
- Plus non-sites adds in the records for sites that no longer exist or are not prehistoric sites.
- Plus duplicates adds records excluded as duplicates. Those maybe duplicate records in external listings (e.g. the Historic Environment Records). For example, some sites have been identified as cairns in some listings and interpreted as round houses in other listings and both records appear.
These listings have incorporated, matched up and merged all of the records from all of the major archaeological listings including: Worth, Grinsell, Turner, Butler, Bill Radcliffe, Sandy Gerrard, Megalithic Portal, the National Monument Records and the Historic Environment Records. The author would like to thank Bill, Sandy, the lovely people both at Megalithic Portal (especially Anne Tate who did an amazing job to link listings) and at ACE Archaeology for collaborative work over the years to synchronise and correct listings across the various websites which now interlink. A culmination of years of work the final merger of cairn records took 3 months of cross referencing in 2017 the result being a snapshot of the records at that time. This data has in turn been refined since by field work and research. The round house data was supplied by Sandy Gerrard. Grid references are in order of accuracy: from Google Earth satellite, if visible and found, from a Garmin GPS reading, if visited by the author and from the literature otherwise. Individual site pages will state the source of the grid reference and provide satellite imagery. If a site listing lacks a photo it has not yet been visited by the author in which case the grid reference is from the literature.
Currently the database only includes sites which can be represented by a grid reference. Reaves are not included as they require GIS shape technology which is beyond the current capability of this system. To see the sources for the records, look at the tables on the resources menu. The database listings can also be viewed on a Google map and downloaded as GPS datasets for Garmin devices.
Corrections, or any feedback or suggestions are very welcome, email: info@dartmoorwalks.org.uk.

Deadman's Bottom (E) Cairn
Prehistoric Dartmoor Walks: Dartmoor Site: Guide to the Langcombe Brook & Deadman's Bottom Cists
OS Map: SX 60788 66893
HER: MDV5118
ShortName: CN Deadmans E
Butler map: 50.1
Grinsell: SHA 6
Turner: D28
Notes: Worth considered this to be a cairn. It was excavated and it was found to be paved with reddened earth showing great fires had been present. Butler Circle 1. Butler suggests it could just have been a hut circle and the fires the consequence of domestic activity. He points out the presence of a settlement wall. However it is also very close to a pair of cists and could be a cairn. We are listing as a cairn although Butler could of course be right. This "circle" can be clearly seen in the Google satellite images. Previously listed at SX 60798 66895 (Garmin reading?), presumed SX 60788 66893 from Google.

Notes: UPDATE 31/12/2022. The 8 HER records MDV66371 - MDV66378 that these records were based on have since been deleted. The old NMR record has this entry:
Summary : Remains of a cairnfield and enclosure. The cairnfield contains at least sixteen circular and oval mounds, with five arranged in a single line along the contour. The enclosure, which incorporates two of the cairns, is defined by a rubble bank.
Centred at SX 590 687 are seven stony mounds in a boulder-free area some 90.0m by 130.0m. They average 3.0m in diameter and 0.7m high. Also visible is the fragmentary remains of a field
25.0m by 38.0m with rubble walling 0.8m wide and 0.3m high. It is fairly certain these are the mounds referred to by Breton. The general situation, construction and appearance of the mounds suggests that they are clearance. The period of the clearance is uncertain though the apparently prehistoric field wall has also been partly stripped out suggesting a late (19th century) date.
The mounds are at, SX 59096881, SX 59146880, SX 59136879, SX 59096879, SX 59096875, SX 59106874 and SX 59106873.
Surveyed at 1:10 000 on MSD. (2)
SX 59106878. Remains of a Bronze Age cairnfield and enclosure. The cairnfield contains at least nine circular and oval mounds, with five arranged in a single line along the contour. The enclosure, which incorporates two of the cairns, is defined by a rubble bank. A large stone set through the southern bank may represent the site of an original entrance. Scheduled. (3)
Sixteen small turf covered mounds, and a short length of bank have been recorded. The largest of the cairns is 3m diameter by 0.4m high. The bank is less than 1m wide by 0.2m high. There can be no certainty as to date for any of these features, though the existence of a nearby settlement suggests a prehistoric origin. (4)

Butler map: 47.14.6
Notes: A cairn lies on the SW facing slope E of the Scout Hut . It measures 5.0m in diameter and 0.5m high with a hollow in its S side. The form, location and relationship of all the cairns in this area is suggestive of clearance activity in the medieval or later periods. Radcliffe notes: "A possible endslab, noticed by WJR 19/5/2002 ". There is a typo in the grid reference. The NMR gives both SX58206734 & 58206743. Butler gives SX58206742. The HER gives SX58206734, probably taken from NMR. This cairn is also described in NMR 1237842 (a fourth cairn ...).

Notes: To the east of the giants basin are two stones which stand parallel to each other, and resemble the two longer sides of a cist. Probably a duplicate of SHE 33a or SHE 33d.
UPDATE 31/12/2022. The HER gives an NGR of SX 5913 6699. This is to the *west* of the Giants Basin and Worth very clearly states to the east. We will arbitrarily assign an NGR which is slightly to the east. SX 59225 66944 - it is a guess of the reported location.

Notes: Cairns within the reave. SHA 24a & SHA 24b: NMR record mentions one cairn. The entry for the reave mentions two. UPDATE 01/01/2023 This record used to link to the now deleted HER record MDV56774. The HER entry MDV131336 has a similiar description of cairns on the reave but located quite some distance away at SX 58536541. If the grid reference is wrong, it could actually refer to this earlier record from Grinsell. NB. Grinsell refers to a paper by Fleming in 1973.

ShortName: CT-Drizzle 26
Notes: A claimed possible cist that could just be a natural arrangement. "An arrangement of stones made up of a pair of long edge-set orthostatic slabs placed to the E and S of a large tilted slab. It is possible that this is a disturbed cist, comprising a displaced sidestone and two endstones but the two orthostats are not parallel and there is no clear central depression. the length between the endstones is 1.2m and the height of the tilted slab is 0.49m. NGR SX 5928 6727" (From Robertson,Jennifer 1991 The Archaeology of the Upper Plym Unpublished PhD Thesis p875). No HER record, the NMR (Sept 1999) gives NGR SX 5927 6727.

PMD: Narrator Brookhead S
ShortName: CT?Eylesbarr2
Notes: Doubtful. SX 59406820. The site of a possible cist lies on the lower SW flank of Eylesbarrow some 400m W of Eylesbarrow Mine.The feature is marked by a single upright slab 1.1m long 0.2m wide and 0.3m high resembling a sidestone adjacent to a second slab 1.4m long and 0.9m wide perhaps representing the coverstone.Both stones are earthfast and are surrounded by a cluster of smaller stones which could represent the remains of a cairn. The area surrounding these stones has been disturbed by later tin extraction activity and it is also possible that they are products of this activity.

Notes: "There appear to be eight circular cupmarks on the south-west corner of Cuckoo Rock in the Deancombe valley; apparently in pairs. Three pairs are arranged horizontally with a smaller pair just above them arranged vertically. Six of the marks measure approximately 5cm diameter by 2cm deep. The remaining two marks measure approximately 2cm diameter by 1cm deep. The carver likely stood on a boulder situated below to mark the rock. Reported to archaeologist at Dartmoor National Park authority who has visited the site (21/11/2022) and agrees with potential interpretation."

Butler map: 49.19.3
DPD page: 40
Notes: Butler Row 3, NMR Row 1, Worth Row B. The NW and S terminal stones have their broad face parallel to the row. The NW row is single for half of its 149.5m length uphill then double for 47m before becoming single again for the last 28m to the cairn. This arrangement appears to be the original design. The other two stone rows are single throughout. The S row is exactly the same length as the NW row but with smaller stones. The average interval between the stones is almost identical and the orientation of the row is such that it gently curves southwards downhill bringing the lower part of the row parallel to the S row. This shift of 7 degrees in alignment of the NW row from top to bottom to line up with the S row would suggest it was constructed later to match the S row. The height of the terminating stones for S and NW rows are 3m and 2.3m respectively. Lethbridge Row C. pp.38-42. Diagram p.38. See also: Sea Views at Drizzlecombe 3

Notes: "The structure comprises a flat slab measuring 1.2m by 0.76m which rests at a slight angle on three upright slabs. These slabs, up to 0.4m high, form a 'z' shape on plan in what appears to be a slight hollow. This feature has been classified by some authorities as a cist although others reject this interpretation for either positional or structural reasons. The historical and archaeological tradition for the existence of a cist here is by no means certain. Known cists in the locality have invariably had their coverstones removed and are open. It is a scheduled ancient monument." The arrangement in the photo could well be natural.

Notes: The author was unable to locate this cist at SX 59708 65692 on 13/08/17. The HER has ngr SX 5971 6570. The site is clearly difficult to find. The area is dense in bracken and according to Lethbridge the cist is very badly damaged. It is unclear how accurate the grid reference is - although it is quite possible that the problem is simply that it is overgrown and difficult to see. A cist consisting of two sidestones, one of which has fallen outwards, and an irregular shaped coverstone. Lethbridge p.50 Shavercombe Cist D - diagram p.49. Butler Hen Tor 5 (Cairn 5) - Vol. 3.
