Beeley Moor

Ring Cairn

thesweetcheat Nov 23, 2016

The final site of the day is Beeley Moor ring cairn, an easy visit as it’s right next to the track. So near in fact that the track is slowly nibbling away at its northern arc. The monument itself is quite heavily overgrown with heather and scrubby grass on the circumference and bracken in the centre. Stones protrude from the bank here and there. It’s reasonably upstanding, but worth a stop off mainly for the excellent views down to the valley below.

Beeley Moor

Ring Cairn

stubob Mar 26, 2003

J.Barnatt has this down to be a robbed cairn rather than a ring cairn.

It’s quite large still even tho’ it’s been damaged in the NE. By the side of the path and marked ‘enclosure’ on some O.S maps.
