ARTHUR'S OVEN, AKA King's Oven. The King's Oven is a cairn on the summit of Water Hill and was a point on the 1240 perambulation or survey of the bounds of the Forest of Dartmoor where it was stated "et inde linealiter usque ad Furnum Regis." It was thought that maybe this was the site of a tin smelting house as they were often called 'King's Ovens' but latter thinking now considers the King's Oven to be the actual remains of the prehistoric cairn. There is also a tradition that the name refers a one time chair and oven that belonged to King Arthur.
Walk 56 paces on 231º to small hollow.
