Title:An Archaeological Survey of an area affected by burning on Hound Tor Down, Manaton, Devon
Originator:Newman, P.
Date:2017
Summary:In March 2017, seasonal swaling on Hound Tor Down resulted in the exposure of a large area of stony archaeological remains, including elements of prehistoric and medieval settlement and farming, revealing detail previously unseen during fieldwork. Dartmoor National Park Authority (DNPA) commissioned a measured survey to record as much as possible before the regrowth of bracken and other moorland vegetation.
