Notes
HER: Cairn at southern end of stone row MDV8076 on Trendlebere Down north-east slope of Black Hill. The cairn at the southern end of the row is centred at SX 7662 7923. Its perimeter can be traced on the ground but only a grass covered crescent of stones survives in the eastern half.References
