Irishman's Wall Circle

Belstone, Devon

Grid ref: SX 6179 9193

Part of Belstone →

The Irishman's Wall Circle is on the moor near Irishman's Wall above Belstone (SX 6179 9193, taken from the Megalithic Portal to 10 metres). Alan Endacott and his volunteers identified it in 2011 with resistivity and magnetic gradiometry surveys, and it was excavated in 2024.

Six stones are visible, with more indicated beneath disturbed ground. The Megalithic Portal calls it the remnants of a cairn circle rather than a true stone circle. Nothing found says whether it is scheduled or when it was built.

It sits in the same group as the Metheral Stone Circle, about a mile south, and the Fallen Brother Dolmen is nearby.
