Single Barrow

Single Barrow sits alone on the high moor, a Bronze Age burial mound that has watched over Dartmoor for over three thousand years. Its simple, rounded form is characteristic of the countless barrows that once dotted this landscape—monuments built by communities whose lives were intimately bound to these hills and valleys.

Standing here, you're not just looking at an archaeological feature but at evidence of how people chose to remember their dead in a place of significance. The moor's openness makes it easy to imagine the ritual importance of this spot, and the surrounding views across Dartmoor's tors and moorland help you understand why the Bronze Age peoples of Devon left their mark here.
