Gatcombe Lodge

Site Type: Long Barrow
Country: England (Gloucestershire)
Visited: Yes on 25th Jul 2022. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 3
Gatcombe Lodge submitted by thecaptain on 24th Mar 2009. Having read several tales of people being stopped and questioned by rapidly arriving police here, I didn’t spend long, and just took a photo from the entry to the estate.

Log Text: site is fenced and has mature trees grown on it. these will have destroyed much of the internal structure. Gatcombe is a royal residence with security staff so it is not advisable to go on the land, and there's nout to see anyway.

Buckholt Wood submitted by 4clydesdale7 on 17th Jun 2011. Fairly easy to find - near entrance to overspill car park for Woodchester Mansion - if you miss the Barrow which is not that conspicuous then look for the Glider Winch at the W end of the Airfield

Gardoms Edge 1 submitted by PaulM on 1st Sep 2001. Gardom’s Edge Prehistoric Rock Art, Derbyshire GR: SK273730
One of the finest examples of prehistoric rock art in the Peak District. Discovered in 1965 on a large earthfast boulder 25m east of the enclosure , the design consists of a series of cup and ringmarks together with a small spiral and two circles that enclose multiple cupmarks.
