Notes
HER: Cairn of 6.4 metres by 6.1 metres and 0.4 metres high between the summits of Hare Tor and Sharp TorThis cairn is to the east of Butler's Hare Tor N.1. Butler lists a cairn N.2 to the south west of N.1. That coincides with the location of a relatively modern earthwork which is thought to be either a military target butt or related to work by tinners. Hare Tor N.2 Cairn
