Log Text: A true palimpsest with remains of different periods all jumbled up together. At one point a prehistoric round house wall is overlain by a medieval field boundary which in turn underlies a post-medieval wall. Truly amazing. This is the sort of thing that you usually only see on excavations.

Log Text: Although not impressive the straight sides to this enclosure combined with its proximity to the Corringdon Ball stone rows, cairns and chambered strongly supports the hypothesis this is is a Neolithic enclosure. There are no others like this on Dartmoor.
