Buttern W
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 31st Mar 2010
Buttern W submitted by theCaptain on 31st Mar 2010. Is there anything left to see today of the possible remains of Buttern Hill (W) circle?
I saw a couple of slightly erect stones a bit further to the north of the main circle, on the far side of the valley. So I went for a look.
I found a couple of edge set stones, spaced about the same as the main circle, with other fallen stones and buried stones which could be considered to be a part of a circle, at position SX 6486 8855.
But I was not convinced.
