HER Number:MDV59516
Name:Two Rows of Stones, adjacent Bridge Cottage and Surgery Cottage, South Tawton, Sticklepath

Summary

Two rows of stones depicted on the early 20th century map, either side of the road verge. Stones are still visible on Google Street View. The grassy verge on the north side of the road adjacent to Bridge Cottage is overgrown so impossible to say how many stones are still present but the tops of some stones are visible.
