Notes
Not located. Cairn on summit of hill of Little Hound Tor (Prowse 1890s). Grinsell and later observers were unable to locate this cairn. There are two cairns on the summit of Little hound tor. 6A includes material piled on a rocky outcrop. This record is described as being "W of little hound tor". This suggests it is the other summit cairn SiteID=4112 HER=MDV52480. This record is being marked as a duplicate of SiteID=4112 HER=MDV52480.References
