Full description

Dartmoor National Park Authority, 1982, Tor Royal Farm (Plan - measured). SDV265836.

Area of prehistoric boundaries shown on Tor Royal survey.

Butler, J., 1993, Dartmoor Atlas of Antiquities: Volume Four - The South-East, 217, Map 63 (Monograph). SDV337765.

Little remains of enclosures that were probably built onto the outside of the reave to the west of Moorlands Farm. Just a few isolated slabs on a very low bank giving the mistaken impression of a stone row.
