Eylesbarrow Reave is a prehistoric field system located on Dartmoor in Devon, England. The reave is a Bronze Age linear boundary, constructed as a substantial earth bank or stone wall that formed part of the extensive land divisions established across the moor during the second millennium BCE. Such reaves represent one of the most significant archaeological features of Bronze Age Dartmoor, providing evidence of organised agricultural land management and territorial organisation during this period. The monument survives as an upstanding linear earthwork that remains visible across the moorland landscape, contributing to our understanding of prehistoric settlement patterns and land use on Dartmoor.
