He writes: “The mortar stone was “found” on 21st March 2002 by Elisabeth Stanbrook, whilst on a walk led by Dr Tom Greeves as recorded in the Dartmoor Magazine (Issue 67, page 5). It was recorded on the Dartmoor HER by Dr Greeves as being 0.37 metres wide by 0.4 metres high and it is conjectured that it may relate to an early phase of tin working in the area, albeit there is no evidence of any building in the immediate vicinity.
