Description

A condition survey of Exmoor's standing stones was comissioned in 2017 for the ENPA Historic Environment Intern Position. This was the first condition survey since 1989 to examine all the monuments in one project and it took place over the duration of the Intern's placement (October 2017-July 2018). All records were checked, and most standing stone sites were visited, and recorded with condition information and photographs. The result of this survey is recorded in a report (SEM8523).
