TRANSACTIONS OF THE PLYMOUTH INSTITUTION. 
thick. The whole row contains, exclusive of the menhir, eleven 
stones. 
Further to the east, and in the alignment of this last row, is an 
enclosure containing two hut-circles, and last of all a large cairn, 
fifty-nine feet in diameter. 
To the north of all is a kistvaen standing on an artificial mound, 
thirty -five feet in diameter at base. The cover -stone, which 
measures 6 feet by 4 ft. 3 in., has been raised, and now rests 
inclined against one of the edges of the kist, which itself measures 
4 feet long by 2 ft. 3 in. wide and 3 ft. 6 in. deep. (See figure 6.) 
An exceedingly fragmentary row extends from this 250 feet to 
the eastward, where it terminates in a stone circle of twenty feet 
diameter. 
There are several enclosures in the neighbourhood, all of which 
contain hut-circles. 
Before leaving this point I would draw attention to a trifling 
inaccuracy to be found in Page's work on Dartmoor. I say trifling, 
because I have reason to believe that more serious errors occur in 
the same book. 
On page 194 I find the following statement concerning the 
Thorn worthy kistvaen : " The one now before us is a remarkably 
fine specimen — as far as I am aware, the only one upon Dartmoor 
with the cover-stone intact. Instead of lying broken near at 
hand, the massive slab has been propped on a lump of granite, 
and rests on one of the sides of the tomb." 
Now I know eight undoubted kistvaens in the Plym valley 
alone, and in the case of each of these eight the cover-stone is 
absolutely intact ; a state of affairs hardly in accordance with the 
implied statement I have just read. 
EYLESBARROW TO PLYM HEAD. 
As time is getting short I must now pass somewhat hurriedly 
over the remainder of the valley. On the summit of Eyles- 
barrow hill are two tumuli, much disturbed, but which from 
present appearances seem at some time to have been chambered, 
although this may be due to recent interference. 
On the slope of Lower Harter Tor, which faces Langcombe, is 
a large pound which encloses three hut-circles ; while outside it, 
to the west, is a cairn which has been broken into. 
The lower portion of Langcombe bears evidence to considerable
