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.

Battle Moss Stone Rows
Date Added: 17th Sep 2010
Site Type: Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue
Country: Scotland (Caithness)
Visited: Yes on 4th Jul 2006
Battle Moss Stone Rows submitted by Andy B on 4th Jul 2006. Very difficult to find, even with a map. Realising I was on the wrong side of the loch, and the other side was very marshy, I took this above telephoto shot of the row and gave up. Unless you are very dedicated, stick to the more impressive Hill O' Many Stanes nearby.

Wayland's Smithy
Date Added: 17th Sep 2010
Site Type: Long Barrow
Country: England (Oxfordshire)
Visited: Yes on 14th Aug 2007
Wayland's Smithy submitted by dodomad on 14th Aug 2007. Wayland Smithy, Oxfordshire. A Neolithic chambered long barrow 2km from the Uffington White Horse. The remains of 14 people, three of whom were probably killed by arrowshots, were discovered in 1962-3, but precise dating is now able to narrow the date of their burials to within a decade or so, between 3590 and 3560BC. This opens up the possibility that these people could have died together as a result of a massacre, possibly in a scramble for land or a cattle raid. Image copyright English Herita...
