Fieldnotes

Re pure joy's choice of name, it corresponds with that used by Burl so can be confirmed.

There are actually three rows here. The NW one is described below and is the best preserved. Double row running for 112m NE from cairn and ending in terminal stone.

N of the tor at SX561709 is a ruined double stone row running W from a cairn and visible for about 27m.

To the W, on the other side of the road at SX559707, is a single stone row running SW from a cairn for 132m ending in a terminal stone.
