MEM22610 - Undated natural surface stone on The Chains (Non-antiquity)

Surface stones were noted during a non intrustive walkover survey of the proposed mire restoration area on The Chains, undertaken by South West Archaeology as part of the Exmoor Mires Project. At least three angular stones were seen, measuring c. 0.4 metres across and 0.15 metres thick were aligned northwest to southeast. This falls within the general stony area MEM22612. [1] The Historic Environment Officer for the Exmoor Mires Project undertook a non intrustive walkover survey of the proposed mire restoration area on The Chains, which included this site. Noted was an unconvincing stone alignment, this falls within an area rich in surface stone (MEM22612) and is likely a natural feature. [2]
