Notes
Grinsell: LVG and GMS have searched in vain for cist near reave connecting Bowerman's Nose with tor to SE, mentioned by Crossing 1912/1965 p.294.The HER has an entry MDV130870 for Hayne Down Reported Stone Row. That entry refers also to the reported Crossing cist but based on Crossing's description the two features are nearly 0.5km apart. For that reason we have kept the two records separate.
