Drizzlecombe, Bronze Age archaeological site in Dartmoor, England.
Three stone rows stretch across Hartor Hill, with each row ending in a standing stone on one side and a burial cairn on the opposite end.
The Bone Stone, measuring 4.2 meters tall and marking the end of the shortest stone row, was restored to its upright position by archaeologists in 1893.
The collection of stone arrangements, burial chambers, and settlement remains demonstrates the complex ritual practices of prehistoric communities in Dartmoor region.
Visitors can access the site through a designated parking area east of Sheepstor village, following marked footpaths that lead to the main archaeological features.
The southern stone row exhibits an unusual pattern, beginning as a single line, transitioning to double, then returning to single before reaching its terminal stone.
