Yar Tor stone row

Historic England's scheduling record (list entry 1003288) describes a triple stone alignment with a northern terminal cairn and a southern terminal kerbed cairn with a cist, between Yar Tor and Corndon Tor. The scheduling falls in two areas. The alignment is three parallel rows of stones, with about 124 stones surviving, some fallen and some partly buried, along rows 250 metres long. The stones are small, averaging about 0.16 metres high, spaced about 1.7 metres apart, and the rows are from 1.4 to 1.8 metres apart. It lies in the parish of Widecombe in the Moor, about 1.3 km north-east of Dartmeet.

The northern terminal cairn is a circular mound 6.5 metres across and 0.9 metres high. The southern one is known as Money Pit Cairn: an oval mound 3.7 metres by 3.1 metres with an upright kerb of close-set small stones and a cist inside with a displaced cover stone. It was robbed in the 1860s. The alignments lie inside a substantial coaxial field system, two reaves cut through them, and several medieval field boundaries cut through the rows as well. Other remains nearby are outside this scheduling.
