Archaeological Wonders of Dartmoor

Dartmoor National Park contains an exceptional concentration of archaeological remains, spanning from the Neolithic to the Middle Ages. This collection includes the Bronze Age hut circles of Grimspound, the extensive megalithic stone rows at Merrivale, and the 13th-century stone longhouses of the Hound Tor medieval village. These sites demonstrate thousands of years of human activity, including prehistoric ritual landscapes, fortified Norman motte-and-bailey castles like Okehampton, and the monastic remnants of Tavistock Abbey.
