It is most famous for containing a stone with three human figures carved into it - Anderlingen's coat of arms features a representation of this carved stone.

Alexander Keiller Museum
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Museum
Country: England (Wiltshire)
Visited: Yes on 31st Dec 2008
Alexander Keiller Museum submitted by JimChampion on 31st Dec 2008. The door to the Barn Gallery at Avebury. The barn is kept very cool in order to preserve the structure of the 17th century building, so it only houses a few archaeological exhibits - according to the NT leaflet it 'tells the story of the landscape through a fully interactive display'. Most of the archaeology collection is in the nearby Stables Gallery. Both are covered by the same admission ticket, unless you are a member of the National Trust (in which case both galleries are free).

Abbotsbury Castle
Date Added: 19th Sep 2010
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Dorset)
Visited: Yes on 1st Jan 2005
Abbotsbury Castle submitted by JimChampion on 1st Jan 2005. December 2004. Looking east from the trig point on top of Abbotsbury hillfort. The hillfort's round tumulus is in the centre of the picture, with a person for scale. At a height of 215m above sea-level you get an impressive view of the surroundings: it is obvious why this site was chosen for a hillfort.
