Julian Cope presents Head Heritage

thank you all very much lots of spots to visit busy week by the look of things , fingers crossed for some weather

If you run out of things to see during the week you could always pop down to Cornwall for a couple of days :-)

Went for a long weekend a week back - lovely place, you'll love it!

We went to Merrivale (stone rows and circle) which is right near the raod and very easy to find, and Fernworthy and Greywethers. Fernworthy is on the way to Greyweathers - both are well worth the journey.

If you go to Fernworthy/Greywethers, be aware that when you get to the car park at the reservoir you can carry on driving right up to the forest and park there - it would have saved us nearly an hour walking round the reservoir if we'd known! I'd take an ordnance survey map for these two.

Wistman's Wood might not be neolithic (although there is a stone at the end of the wood), but it is well worth a visit.

Have a great time!

You need a year...

Most of the sites mentioned are Bronze Age, but there are a few, mostly quite ruined, Neolithic chambered tombs/long barrows scattered about. Spinsters' Rock is the most well known (but not on the Moor itself).http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/site/8536/dartmoor.html

I think White Tor is a Neolithic settlement site.

visiting dartmoor for the first time , can anyone recommend must see sites ? or those hidden away spots with neolithic interest ?

many thanks
