Butterdon Hill Barrow submitted by thecaptain on 2nd Aug 2004. Butterdon Hill Barrow, Dartmoor, Devon SX657594
Large cairn just beside the Butterdon Hill stone row, at the point where the row changes direction as it drops over the edge of the ridge, and at what is the crest of the hill when seen from the north. It is possible that it was once surrounded by a ring of stones, but this cairn has been much altered over the years.
Viewed here looking towards the northwest

Visited: Yes on 7th Jul 2022. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 5 Access 2
Cornridge SE submitted by TheCaptain on 7th Jun 2004. Corn Ridge cairn, Dartmoor, Devon SX551891
The remains of a nice large cairn can be found at the summit of Corn Ridge, about 10m diameter. There is the usual depression in its middle, but otherwise it seems fairly intact, with some quite nice stones forming its outside shape. There is also what seems to be the remains of a circle of stones surrounding it with about 2 metres extra diameter.
