User / Christian Hacker / Down Tor Stone Circle
Christian Hacker / 1,386 items
From a wonderful hike last Sunday in the Burrator area. We included two fantastic Bronze Age stone circles in our route. The one in the photo here must be one of the finest on Dartmoor! A large stone circle with a roughly 350 metre long straight stone row leading into the moorland beyond. The people creating this ritualistic site in the Bronze Age even accentuated the drama by increasing the standing stones of the row towards the circle, with the largest granite slab being about 3 metres tall. A fascinating site, glad the sun peeked out for us as well!
