It is home to a number of ancient stone circles, cairns and burial mounds. Amongst them, the Cockpit Stone Circle is the most impressive, measuring 88.6 feet (27 m) in diameter.
The Cop Stone is another intriguing sight. A leaning, 5-foot (1.5 m) tall standing stone in isolation on this lonely, windswept moor.
