The Bronze Age stone circle of Scorhill is located southwest of Gidleigh, above and not far from the North Teign (river) near the confluence of its tributary the Wallabrook. It is considered to be by far the finest example of its kind in Devonshire and is the only one of the stone circles on Dartmoor in England that has not been restored. (Wikipedia)
