St David's Head submitted by Adam Stanford on 29th Nov 2004. Inside the enclosure with the seven, possibly eight circular hut remains clearly visible in the foreground. The ramparts are obscured by the rock outcrop, which runs parallel to them (left to right) in the middle of this picture. Coetan Arthur is just beyond another rock outcrop, below the horizon to the left and the double dolmen of Carn Llidi is hard to spot on the slopes in the distance.

Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Yes on 23rd Feb 2023. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 4 Access 2
The Devil's Mouth Cross Dyke submitted by TimPrevett on 25th Apr 2004. The Devil's Mouth Cross Dyke is the shortest and most accessible cross dyke on the archaeologically rich Long Mynd. It is over 400 feet long, with a 100 feet section missing where the Burway Road cuts through the feature as the road moves away from the precipitous drop into Carding Mill Valley. The whole area is under the management of The National Trust.
It is important to point out that the road is very narrow, with many passing places. In peak season it can take some time to make a journey...

Caer Caradoc (Church Stretton) submitted by TimPrevett on 28th Jun 2004. Caer Caradoc, taken from a northwest angle on a lovely summer's morning. Indeed, this offers some formidable defense. If this were the place of Caratacus' last stand against the Romans, this would have indeed been something difficult to conquer, even by Roman standards. However, there is no evidence to confirm this suggestion.
