Hound Tor Deserted Medieval Village, Dartmoor

This settlement, situated about 350m above sea level, consists of a cluster of C13 granite longhouses, in which people lived at one end and animals at the other, on land that was originally farmed in the Bronze Age. Hound Tor was probably deserted in the early C14 as widespread falling temperatures and rising rainfall caused crop failures and cattle disease, that hit this upland community badly.

Now I don’t know a great deal about ships but this big lad running aground at high tide in the very small navigable route that connects the English Channel with the port at Teignmouth seems sub-optimal. #devon

Great Nodden, Lyd Valley, Dartmoor

A dramatic hill and an unusual shape for the moor. In the foreground a modern cairn made from the surrounding clitter.

#Devon #Dartmoor #RiverLyd

A moorland landscape with a steep-sided mound-like hill on the left. In the foreground there are areas of loose stone that someone has used to make a tall pile to emulate the ancient cairns found across Dartmoor. The sky is bright blue with a few fluffy white clouds.
