Woodbarrow Stone Setting
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 21st Apr 2008
Woodbarrow Stone Setting submitted by thecaptain on 21st Apr 2008. It is possible that what I found is the remains of two rows, or perhaps even the remains of an Exmoor six-pack, the two rows being about 7 metres apart.
One fallen stone in the foreground, another leaning stone is in the clump of long growth mid picture.

East Pinford 2 submitted by thecaptain on 3rd May 2008. Said to be a six stone rectangle similar to East Pinford 1, with only one stone still standing.
I certainly found a stone standing at the grid ref noted here, about 0.3 metres high.

Gutter Tor north
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Cairn
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 10th Jun 2008
Gutter Tor north submitted by thecaptain on 10th Jun 2008. Right beside the road at SX574672 are the remains of a fairly large cairn, about 22 metres in diameter.
However, this cairn has been well and truly messed around with, no doubt going to make up the road and the nearby walls. In fact, it is perhaps surprising there is anything left of it at all.
