Cairn

This cairn is one of hundreds that dot Dartmoor's open moorland, built by Bronze Age communities over 4,000 years ago. Stone by stone, they marked the graves of their dead, creating monuments that have survived millennia of exposure to moorland weather and time.

The stones sit quietly in the landscape, easy to overlook yet impossible to ignore once you've found them. Standing here, you're connecting with people who knew this same moorland intimately—its patterns, seasons, and unforgiving beauty.
