The Ancient Barrow Well, St. Briavel's

The Ancient Barrow Well, St. Briavel's submitted by Cunningwoman on 17th Jun 2019. This is Barrow Well, in Barrow Lane, St Briavel's in Glos. It is the remains of an ancient well that was on this site. Today there is no water in it but the ground around it is quite wet and soggy- which might suggest the spring is still there. There is a plaque, that declares the well to be the site of King Johns water- used for him - whilst he was staying in the near by castle... perhaps in his beer. Written on the plaque is 'Barrow water and Worral wheat...'. However, I feel the stone is more...

Gray Hill summit cairn
Date Added: 30th Nov 2020
Site Type: Round Cairn
Country: Wales (Monmouthshire)
Visited: Yes on 30th Jun 2020
Gray Hill summit cairn submitted by TheCaptain on 2nd Apr 2004. Grey Hill or Gray Hill, Monmouthshire. Cairn atop hill at ST434936
Right on the top of the hill, with spectacular views all around is the remains of an ancient, but well worn cairn. I could have been imagining it, but did this cairn once have a kerbed ring around it, and some internal structures ?

Gray Hill stone row
Date Added: 30th Nov 2020

Gray Hill stone row submitted by TheCaptain on 2nd Apr 2004. Grey Hill or Gray Hill Stone Row, Monmouthshire, ST437936 - ST438935
Looking to the south down the hill, is a fairly reasonable alignment of 5 stones in a row, which sort of joins between the jumbled stone remains on the top of the hill and the stone circle.

Site Type: Misc. Earthwork
Country: England (Gloucestershire)
Visited: Yes on 29th Oct 2020
Offa's Dyke at Tidenham Chase submitted by TheCaptain on 7th Apr 2022. A walk up Offas Dyke from Chepstow to Brockweir, and not hammering down with rain this time, so I got a few snaps. The banks are not built as big as further north, but there is a lot of stone in the construction here, looking more like a wall in places.

Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: Wales (Powys)
Visited: Would like to visit
Great Oak Stone submitted by cerrig on 8th May 2012. This is the view from the South East, on a bearing of approx. 300 degrees North West, along the very flat and dead vertical "smiley"faced Northern flank. If someone hadn't thoughtfully planted a tree in the way you would be able to see that this stone is aligned on the top of Myarth hill (not the summit), beyond this the line goes to Bwllch standing stone, out of site from here. Spookily, if you followed the line in the opposite direction it goes directly through the house I used to live in , in...

Long Stone (Minchinhampton)

Site Type: Standing Stones
Country: England (Gloucestershire)
Visited: Would like to visit
Long Stone (Minchinhampton) submitted by TimPrevett on 30th Dec 2009. Sunset 26/12/09 - an unplanned visit to a number of sites in the area.
No maps - just a vague 1970s guidebook - took us a couple hours to locate this having gone from Minchinhampton via Hampton Fields to Tetbury to Avening missing the stone at first by a narrow margin.
Having resigned ourselves to a long barrow this stone was spotted with just a few minutes before the sun went below the horizon.
A very impressive 7 feet tall stone, and make sure to see the smaller stone bisecting the wall ...
