Cold Aston
Date Added: 21st Sep 2018
Site Type: Chambered Tomb
Country: England (Gloucestershire)
Visited: Yes on 7th Dec 2017
Cold Aston submitted by Humbucker on 7th Dec 2017. Its easy to drive past this barrow - there's no sign although its on a pathway, but you can just see it from the road if you look. I first visited in the summer after an afternoon of rain & got absolutely drenched in the long grass. You can make out the shape of the barrow better without the leaves on the trees, I think at least one end of the barrow has suffered with past ploughing. It's a lovely site to visit & I've not seen anyone else here the times I've visited!

Long Stone, Staunton submitted by Humbucker on 26th Nov 2017. The Staunton Longstone. Took me a couple of attempts to find this stone as there are two Stauntons in the same county! The 'other' Staunton is a little further north.

Country: England (Oxfordshire)
Visited: Yes on 4th Nov 2017
Wayland's Smithy submitted by Humbucker on 4th Nov 2017. Visited Waylands Smithy mid-Winter a couple of times & loved the bare beech tree branches seemingly reaching down towards the barrow. Still people picnicking here despite the cold! Wanted to visit the site at a different time of year to see the difference.

Arbor Low 1
Date Added: 11th Nov 2017
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Derbyshire)
Visited: Yes on 29th Oct 2017
Arbor Low 1 submitted by Humbucker on 29th Oct 2017. Arbor Low from the banks of the henge. I knew from previous visits it was difficult to show that this was a circle from the banks without a drone as you are almost level with the stones, I stood on tiptoes and held the camera on the tripod above my head. With the strong wind it was a bit of a challenge, I got several shots of empty fields and cows, but perseverance eventually paid off.

Pentre Ifan
Date Added: 11th Nov 2017
Site Type: Portal Tomb
Country: Wales (Pembrokeshire)
Visited: Yes on 19th Oct 2017
Pentre Ifan submitted by Humbucker on 19th Oct 2017. Visited Pentre Ifan for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Visited at sunset & again at dawn the following day - very atmospheric. The photos I have posted are all from the sunset visit & taken within a short time of each other. Tried to show the relationship of the site with the surrounding landscape - Mynydd Carn Ingli, the sea & The Carnedd Meibion Owen outcrops in the distance. Spectacular how quicly the light & cloud formations change as you take the shots
