This impressive double row of stones is a member of a group of several prehistoric structures: two stone circles, an avenue, a double row, a single row, a large damaged cist, standing stones and hut-circles. 182m (596 feet) long and 1.1m (3 feet 6 inches) wide, it is aligned almost exactly East-West. A triangular stone lies at the eastern terminus, and paired pillars at the western terminus.

Access: Just south of the B3357 cross-Dartmoor road, 6km from Tavistock. Pull over just past the hamlet of Merrivale.
