On the side of the Avon Dam , where it looks like the photos are taken , are two settlements , one large with numerous hut remains in it and one smaller one with 3 or 4 hut remains in it. If you can have a look at OS 28 map , that are at SX677658 approx.


No Lubin, this is approaching Brockhill Stream from the east, that is north of Gripper's Hill. I visited the settlements you mention looking for the sadly underwhelming cist.



There are 7 cairns on that side , Jeremy Butler , Dartmoor Atlas of Antiquities , Volume Four , The Southeast map 57. One is a possible ring cairn and there are 2 very close together. I would say you are correct and these are cairns in the photo. Hope that is helpful.
