Summary

83% Informative

Two neolithic stone circles have been discovered on Dartmoor , adding credibility to the theory that a 'sacred arc' of monuments was built in the heart of the Devon uplands.

One of the circles appears to have similar features to Stonehenge, while the second sits slightly outside the sweep of the arc and could have served as a gateway used by pilgrims.
