Bindon Hill
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Dorset)
Visited: Yes on 14th May 2005
Bindon Hill submitted by JimChampion on 14th May 2005. The context of the fort, on top of Bindon Hill and towering over Lulworth Cove. The cove would have been an important harbour for early Iron Age settlers/invaders arriving from the continent, and it is suggested that the defensive earthworks of Bindon Hill were a hurried beach-head fortification to secure control of the cove.

Bishops Limekiln Car Park
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: England (Dorset)
Visited: Yes on 28th Dec 2006
Bishops Limekiln Car Park submitted by JimChampion on 28th Dec 2006. I know nothing about this stone other than the fact it is listed here. I've often driven past the car park and wondered. Stopped off and found it under a tree in the car park. To emphasise the car parkiness of it, my filthy vehicle is visible on the right.

Boskednan stone circle
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 22nd Aug 2005
Boskednan stone circle submitted by JimChampion on 22nd Aug 2005. The portal stones illuminated by the last rays of the setting sun. The tallest one (on the left) has a diagonal groove present on this and the opposite side. The holes that the restored stones were raised from have been covered with pegged down foliage, presumably to encourage regrowth on the bare earth.

Bosullow Quoit
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Modern Stone Circle etc
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 12th Sep 2006
Bosullow Quoit submitted by JimChampion on 12th Sep 2006. This quoit-style roadside sculpture is much smaller than the ancient quoits found in its neighbourhood. The low angle makes it look bigger, and also hides the adjacent roads from view.

Bratton Camp
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Wiltshire)
Visited: Yes on 25th Apr 2007
Bratton Camp submitted by JimChampion on 25th Apr 2007. A view of the southeast corner of Bratton Camp. The two banks are roughly the same height here on the gently sloping hill. In the foreground a path enters the hillfort (to the left) through one of the original entrances. This is a two-photo composite image, which explains some of the some of the distortion towards the edges.

Breamore Miz-Maze
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Turf Maze
Country: England (Hampshire)
Visited: Yes on 30th May 2005
Breamore Miz-Maze submitted by JimChampion on 30th May 2005. May 2005. A composite image of the miz maze, taken from the vantage point of a tree stump to the north of the maze. It is in very good condition, and this is probably because of its relatively remote location and surrounding fence.
