Ashtead Common Earthwork submitted by Andy B on 15th Apr 2010. A view of the large triangular earthworks on Ashtead Common. There are a lot of dead trees in the centre, I presume these are being allowed to die and not being replaced.

Hillbury hillfort
Date Added: 17th Sep 2010
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Surrey)
Visited: Yes on 9th Jul 2010
Hillbury hillfort submitted by Andy B on 9th Jul 2010. At the north-western corner of Puttenham Common, this is one of its few areas not infested with bracken. The iron age fort is barely discernible as such, its banks are not very noticeable. The interior of the fort is covered in bracken, grass and heather. In the far distance is the west end of the Hog's Back.

Albury Bottom Enclosure
Date Added: 4th Apr 2012
Site Type: Misc. Earthwork
Country: England (Surrey)
Visited: Yes on 6th Nov 2011
Albury Bottom Enclosure submitted by Andy B on 6th Nov 2011. SolarMegalith explores the Albury Bottom Enclosure on a very waterlogged day after a whole night of torrential rain.
The whole place turned into a giant bog which makes me doubt whether anyone would want to live there, this site has to be a cattle enclosure of some date or other.

Badshot Lea
Date Added: 4th Apr 2012
Site Type: Long Barrow
Country: England (Surrey)
Visited: Yes on 6th Nov 2011
Badshot Lea submitted by Andy B on 6th Nov 2011. The site of Badshot Lea long barrow, which now has Doggy Day Care as its neighbour! The lady here was pleasant and we stayed clear until she had moved the (very barky) dogs in her care.
This is "immediately east of the railway cutting" so I think the barrow would have lain along this narrow strip of land

Country: England (West Sussex)

Chanctonbury Ring submitted by Creative Commons on 19th Mar 2011. Chanctonbury Hill Tumulus TQ 1373 1202
Looking East to Chanctonbury Ring, shows the most prominent Tumulus and to the right, the South Downs Way.
The 'Whaleback' nature of the ridge is clearly shown.
The trees of the ring were planted in the 'ring' of the hill fort by Charles Goring in the C18; devastated in the storm of 1987 they are now being replanted.

Wolstonbury
Date Added: 4th Apr 2012
Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement
Country: England (West Sussex)
Visited: Yes on 4th Oct 2011
Wolstonbury submitted by Andy B on 4th Oct 2011. Fold: Wolstonbury Hill OS map ref: TQ288136
Rest in FOLD, below Wolstonbury Hill, near Brighton. A dynamic woven ring of coppiced greenwood sitting in the bowl of the valley, FOLD is inspired by traditional sheep enclosures and the Bronze Age earthwork on Wolstonbury Hill: a landscape where five thousand years of forest clearance and animal grazing have allowed the unique ecology of chalk grassland to flourish.
Designed and built by Red Earth lead artists Caitlin Easterby and Simon Pas...
