Beeley Warren NW.
Location-
Beeley Warren, Beeley, Derbyshire
O.S Grid Reference-
SK27782 68757.
Parking and directions onto the moor as with all the other monuments on Beeley Moor (Parking at the Hellbank Plantation and accessing the moor via the park gate). Instead of taking the track to the stone circle continue on along the track towards Chatsworth for a further 200m. The ring cairn is about 10m from the track in an area of bracken and moorland grass, a gps is handy for locating this site.
Measuring 11m across its external diameter John Barnatt argues that this is a true ring cairn, rather than a robbed out cairn, due to its flat interior and regular bank profile. On the Eastern edge of the bank is a stone which may have stood upright or alternatively to have been a kerbstone.
