Part of Eylesbarrow watershed reave is a Bronze Age boundary earthwork located on Dartmoor in Devon. Reaves are substantial linear banks, often accompanied by ditches, that subdivided the moorland landscape during the later Bronze Age, typically dating from around 1500 to 1000 BCE. The Eylesbarrow watershed reave forms part of an extensive system of such boundaries that divided the upland terrain into land parcels, possibly for pastoral management or territorial demarcation. The monument survives as an earthen bank and remains a significant archaeological feature for understanding Bronze Age land organization and settlement patterns on Dartmoor.
