Cosdon Stone Row

Cosdon Stone Row is one of a few triple stone rows on Dartmoor, Challacombe is another I can think of. It sits on the eastern side of Cosdon Hill and is known locally as the cemetery or graveyard. The stone row itself runs for 170 metres, however most of the erected, visible stones are higher up the hill, with a terminal stone set away from the rest lower down the hill. There are good views east from here and a steep climb up to Cosdon Hill summit if you are heading that way.
