Round cairn 190m east of Doe Tor summit
Devon
This round cairn sits on the moorland 190 metres east of Doe Tor's summit, a burial monument from the Bronze Age. Like many cairns scattered across Dartmoor, it marks a place of significance in the prehistoric landscape, though its original form may have been altered over thousands of years by moorland use and weather.
The site today is part of the dense archaeological heritage of central Dartmoor, where Bronze Age remains punctuate the open moor. Visitors walking this area will find the cairn in context with the broader Dartmoor landscape: heather and grass moorland with distant views, and the tor itself a notable landmark for navigation and orientation.
