Sittaford Tor stone circle

Sittaford Tor stone circle sits on the open moorland between Sittaford and Cranmere Pool, part of Dartmoor's rich Bronze Age heritage. The circle is modest but atmospheric, its stones weathered by millennia of exposure to wind and rain on this exposed plateau. The setting speaks to why Bronze Age communities chose this landscape—the tor rising nearby provides shelter and dominance over the surrounding country.

To visit is to understand Dartmoor as the ancients did: a place of stone, space, and elemental exposure. The moor is quieter here than at more famous circles, and the walk rewards those willing to venture into the high ground where the horizon stretches endlessly and weather shapes everything.
