It is the first such structure to have been built in the English Midlands in thousands of years.

Log Text: Attempted to locate, but heather and gorse growth made it virtually impossible. Fairly sure I found level ground with a circular banked edge at point 1 - SH 1391 2564 (very visible on LiDAR), however points 2 and 3 eluded me (can't seem to find them on LiDAR).

Log Text: Great viewpoint, dubious as to whether this is a standing stone of any variety or more likely something that has moved due to erosion?

Cilgerran Churchyard submitted by vicky on 4th Apr 2002. Cilgerran Churchyard (SN191431) – one of several standing stones located in churchyards in this part of SW Wales. The stone can be hard to find amongst the similarly grey tombstones and exhibits lettering on one face and crude cross symbols of two other faces. Our research pixie is looking in to this stone further.

Log Text: Has been on my list of sites to visit for some time, but always a bit far from my where I am in Cumbria or the Dales. What a great stone, complete with cup and ring marks (a first for me on anything other than exposed bedrock or stone repurposed in drystone walls). Standing stone (as a single object) feels well placed to cast a shadow across the landscape, but the subsequent stone circle seems quite odd as it flows down hill. An archaeologist friend of mine was lucky enough to be on a dig here in late 2022!

Mayburgh submitted by wildtalents on 15th May 2024. The henge banks at Mayburgh were built up mainly using cobbles like those surrounding the one remaining megalith at the site. It's a really large structure and may have been a meeting point for many hundreds of people at a time. These days mainly sheep throng the henge. Image from spring 2023.

Log Text: Finally managed to visit after a number of visits called off due to poor weather. Incredible scale, especially considering it being built from cobbles taken from the river. Was once told it is made up of three colours of rock, from three different sources?
