Ringmoor Down Cairn 4 submitted by TheCaptain on 30th May 2013. marked on the OS map as enclosure, is likely the remains of a fairly large ring cairn of 35 metres diameter.
It is not easy to find, although given the right conditions, the central area can be seen to be flattened off from the basic moor.
