Go deeper with Dartefacts

Dartefacts is a database of Dartmoor sites with far more close-up detail than we can show here, and it is the best place to go deeper. Dartefacts is free to use, and nobody has to pay to look things up. If you want more, a yearly subscription adds 10-figure grid references, map zoom down to 1:25,000 and lists to tick off the places you have visited, and it helps keep the site going. We would encourage you to subscribe.

A close-up photograph from DartmoorPhotograph by Glavind Strachan Photography

“in front of us rose the huge expanse of the moor, mottled with gnarled and craggy cairns and tors. A cold wind swept down from it and set us shivering.”

Also on Our DartmoorLints Tor hut circle settlement — At least four incomplete enclosures with many hut circles on the west slope of Lints Tor, and a 7 m cairn 1.6 m high with a slab-roofed cache cut into its top.
