What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Tor cairn forming part of a round cairn cemetery, and a stone hut circle on the summit of Cox Tor as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Tor cairn, dating to the Neolithic or Early Bronze Age, is a type of burial monument commonly found in upland areas of the British Isles. Its presence within a round cairn cemetery indicates its significance as part of a broader funerary and ritual landscape.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
