    Entrance to Dunnabridge Pound. Dunnabridge Pound is a large enclosure of unknown date situated almost dead centre of the high moorland of Dartmoor. When it was created is not known – it has been variously described as a 'late prehistoric pound' and a 'mediæval stock enclosure'. An overall analysis suggests that the enclosure may have been originally a Bronze Age enclosed settlement similar to that at Grimspound, but rebuilt over later ages, to serving as a cattle pound from the Middle Ages into the modern period. The visible structure of Dunnabridge Pound appears to be mediæval though with later rebuilding. It consists of a drystone wall, built of large rough granite blocks in roughly circular plan. The entrance, facing the road, is divided by granite monolith into a wider and narrower opening. This pound is very well preserved, as it has been maintained over centuries. Just inside the Pound's entrance near the road is a structure known as The Judge's Chair, which may have been installed here as recently as the Georgian period. This is a large stone seat, integral with the wall, with a large granite canopy above providing shelter. (Information from WikiShire)
