Hi Dok,

After my travels I've written the odd notes on the following.....

Scorhill - http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/site/19

The Shovel Down complex - http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/site/20

Fernworthy - http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/site/15

The Greyweathers - http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/site/301


I've mainly stayed in Cornwall, so my Dartmoor visiting has been more than patchy. The most interesting and useful advice I've heard so far about White Moor is the following from Burl's 'A Guide to the Stone Circles of Britain, Ireland & Brittany', which writes "…from whichever direction it is approached, take care over the morass of Raybarrow Pool, ½ mile long, ¼ mile wide, SX640905 to SX638894, a nuisance in dry weather, positively dangerous in wet, 'an extensive mire' wrote William Crossing, a veteran of Dartmoor, 'one of the worst in the moorland region' ".
