'V'-shaped gully 350m east of Trowlesworthy Warren House
Devon
This scheduled monument is a V-shaped gully carved into the moorland east of Trowlesworthy Warren House. Such features are characteristic of medieval or post-medieval activity on Dartmoor, possibly the result of sustained water erosion along a routeway, drainage line, or management feature used by communities working the moor.
Today the gully remains as a linear depression in the landscape, a quiet record of how people and water have shaped Dartmoor's terrain over centuries. It sits within the broader archaeological context of Trowlesworthy, an area rich in cairns, settlements and industrial heritage. Walkers in this part of the moor will find it a subtle but tangible mark of the past.
