Yellowmead stone circle near Sheepstor in Devon, England is a concentric Bronze Age stone circle consisting of four stone rings set into each other. The largest is 20 meters wide and the smallest 6 meters. It is located on Yellowmead Down.

The circles once surrounded a burial mound, although this is now barely visible. To the south-west some possible rows of stones branch off, crossed by a post-medieval leat that once served a nearby tin works.

The site was excavated and restored by Rev. H Breton in 1921. In 2008, geophysical surveys and a small excavation were carried out to determine if the 1921 restoration had been done accurately (it was) and to find out if they were buried additional elements in the peat. Fallen stones were found in line with some of the stone rows, suggesting that further features may lie downstream below the slope.

5000 years ago, the Neolithic people of Dartmoor cut this 27 feet high standing stone from granite where The Oxenham Arms is now located.

The pub was built around it when it was a monastery around 800 years ago, the stone goes down into the cellar & up into the room above.
