One of the best surviving ancient causeways, Tarr Steps crosses the river Barle on Exmoor.
The Tarr Steps is a clapper bridge across the River Barle in the Exmoor National Park, Somerset. They are located in a national nature reserve about 4 km south east of Withypool and 6 km north west of Dulverton. A typical clapper bridge construction, the bridge's listing assesses it as medieval in origin. The stone slabs weigh up to two tons each. The bridge is 55 m long and has 17 spans.
