Beeley Warren Northwest

Cairn, Ringcairn

Beeley Warren Northwest, Ringcairn or Robbed Cairn

Some hunting around in the grass may be required to find this site as again there isn’t much to see and the rubble bank is very low in all places.

May also be another robbed cairn rather than ringcairn. It is barely visible in among the long grass and only a few stones, which form part of the rubble bank, can be seen. Thankfully, for now, it remains in a grassy spot and isn’t overwhelmed by bracken. In my opinion, it is another site for completists only.

Please note that during my research I found that the names for the Beeley Moor sites were inconsistent and so the naming convention I use here is of my own invention. These same sites may be listed under other names by other authors.
