Yellowmead submitted by JeanFry on 3rd Feb 2020. Yellowmead Stone Circle on Yellowmead Down, with Sheeps Tor on the skyline.
An unusual Bronze Age monument consisting of four concentric circles. Many of the stones had fallen over hundreds of years and were re-erected when they were discovered. However, some stones were missing, probably used in stone walls by farmers and local inhabitants many years ago.
