Chobham Common (1) submitted by Andy B on 18th Feb 2005. Look for the bank going straight on ahead of you through the trees, and a corner to run left off picture in the foreground.

Site Type: Barrow Cemetery
Country: England (Surrey)
Visited: Yes on 18th Feb 2005
Horsell Common W submitted by Andy B on 18th Feb 2005. This is the disc barrow, honest! From immediately in front, a very slight ditch can just be seen stretching around to the right, parallel with the line of trees, which look like they have been cleared.

The Silent Pool submitted by Andy B on 16th Apr 2005. The Silent Pool, Albury. The pool is formed from a nearby natural spring, and its true name is Sherbourne Pond. Its clear waters and peaceful setting give it an air of tranquility, or 'silence'.

Albury Park Mound
Date Added: 17th Sep 2010
Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: England (Surrey)
Visited: Yes on 17th Apr 2005
Albury Park Mound submitted by Andy B on 17th Apr 2005. This is the most overgrown site we have ever investigated. After much searching we think we've located the lost barrow. The thicket you see indicated here by Eileen is on a raised circular area of ground about 10 metres across. With a bit of imagination you can see the shape of a barrow in the profile of the bushes.

Deerleap Wood
Date Added: 17th Sep 2010
Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: England (Surrey)
Visited: Yes on 17th Apr 2005
Deerleap Wood submitted by Andy B on 17th Apr 2005. I revisited Deerleap Wood barrow in Spring 2005, fearing what the trees planted in 1997 might have done. Remarkably the trees look identical, so I can only assume the previous lot of trees was cut down and new ones planted. These shouldn't really be planted on one of the most significant barrows in Surrey, should they?

Date Added: 17th Sep 2010
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Surrey)
Visited: Yes on 30th Jun 2005
Felday submitted by Andy B on 30th Jun 2005. This hillfort is not easy to discerne, it appears to cover most of the hilltop. I will return in the winter once the undergrowth has died down but in the meantime here's a taster of the wildwood surrounding it.
