Roundhill Barrow
Trip No.16 Entry No.7 Date Added: 24th Jun 2020
Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: England (Somerset)
Visited: Yes
Roundhill Barrow submitted by Iain_P on 24th May 2017. Here's a simulation (= not very scientific, manipulated Photoshopped image!) showing the barrow without the trees, bushes and knee-deep vegetation. Actually, purely by accident, it fits quite well with the dimensions and description given on the Heritage England listing:
"circular in plan, measuring about 21m in diameter, and survives to a height of approximately 1.7m, with steep sloping sides descending from a level area on the summit which measures 10m across." (List Entry Number: 1013521)

Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement

Udal (Grenitote) submitted by Creative Commons on 13th Apr 2012. Wheelhouse at Udal
This is a well-preserved example of an iron age wheelhouse. It was dug partly into the ground. Central stone partitions, like the spokes of a wheel, divided the house into sections.
ScotlandsPlaces says that there is evidence of continuous occupation from Neolithic times to the post-medieval period.
