19th century building at Crownley Parks.
Newman, P., 2002, Haytor Down, Ilsington, Devon, 15, Figure8 (Report - Survey). SDV346395.
Small rectangular building at the foot of a spoil heap to the south of the lode working to the north-west of Crowmley Parks. On the floor of the building is an earthfast stone with seven mortar indentations, the deepest of which is 160 millimetres. Although unlikely to be associated with water powered tin stamps, this stone could be rare evidence of hand stamping, possible associated with copper production recorded here in the 19th century.
