Robert Burnard (1848-1920) first discovered the kistvaen at Roundy Park in 1893 and he recorded it in his Pictorial Records. He stated “This, the largest known kistvaen on Dartmoor, was found by the author in August 1893.” The kistvaen is accessible via a gate into the enclosure between Drift Lane and Braddon Lake at SX639220 79667, which is about a kilometre north of Postbridge. The “tongue in cheek”, then and now comparisons are 127 years apart and show that nothing obvious has changed.
