Round cairn 740m south east of Great Trowlesworthy Tor

This round cairn sits on open moorland roughly 740 metres southeast of Great Trowlesworthy Tor, a prominent granite outcrop in the heart of Dartmoor. Like many cairns scattered across the moor, it likely dates to the Bronze Age, when this landscape was more densely settled and cultivated than it is today. Such cairns typically served as burial monuments or markers of significant places in the ritual and social life of prehistoric communities.

Today the site stands as part of Dartmoor's rich archaeological character, a quiet witness to thousands of years of human presence. Visitors walking this stretch of moorland will find themselves among the granite tors, heather, and gorse that define the high moor, with this small stone monument adding depth to the sense of time accumulated in the landscape.
