Two Headland Warren boundary stones is a pair of granite markers situated on Dartmoor in Devon, positioned approximately 275 metres and 430 metres north of Birch Tor. The stones demarcate the boundaries of Two Headland Warren, a medieval or early modern enclosed hunting ground or animal enclosure, reflecting the administrative and economic importance of warrens in managing game resources on the moorland. Constructed from local granite typical of Dartmoor monuments, these boundary markers form part of the wider landscape of warren management that characterised the region during the medieval and post-medieval periods. The stones represent tangible evidence of organised land use and territorial definition in Dartmoor's upland environment.
