Sherberton Common OSGR SX 6910 7330

Comments
Destroyed by 1897, but the location is very poorly specified.
Butler (1997) suggested a structure similar to that at Metherel.
Possibly that referred to in Baring-Gould A Book of Dartmoor, 1900, p54 - "on a common near Leusdon", but he says that one was destroyed in 1898 to repair the Ashburton road.
