Welshampton Bowl Barrow
Date Added: 1st Nov 2018
Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Yes on 27th Oct 2018. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 3 Access 5
Welshampton Bowl Barrow submitted by TimPrevett on 15th Jan 2005. The barrow adjoining the road in Welshampton; impressive stature - shame about the road cutting it in half, and the telegraph pole!
A good view into the enclosure, and idea of the surrounding countryside is possible by standing on the bank above the pavement. Snowdrops were growing on the barrow today (Sat 15th Jan 2005); an encouraging sign of the life stirring in the ground again.

Bishop's Wood
Date Added: 2nd Jan 2019
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Staffordshire)
Visited: Couldn't find on 29th Dec 2018. My rating: Access 3
Log Text: Tried again to find this site. Thought that by late December the bracken and briars would have died back enough to try to find/access the site -wrong!
Since my last attempt,i've got hold of a copy of the 1965-7 map which clearly shows the Earthwork. However!! 50 years on (unsurprisingly) the minor path (off the forest trackway) leading to/through the earhtworks has been totaly engulfed by bracken/briars.With fallen trees and dense tree growth also obscuring the ground/sightlines it makes the promontory hill fort hard to locate. I know i was closer to it than my last visit but did i actually locate/stand within the hillfort - No!
Very frustrating. Perhaps another visit,once winter has bitten harder.Third time lucky maybe?!

Foel Fenlli submitted by TimPrevett on 27th Sep 2004. The north side of Foel Fenlli hillfort, a few minutes walk from the parking for Moel Famau.
The white dots on the lower slope are sheep, helping give a sense of the scale of the place. The road to Ruthin (from Mold) exits the picture lower right hand corner.

Andle Stone (Stanton Moor) submitted by PaulM on 1st Sep 2001. The Andle Stone, near Doll Tor Stone Circle, Stanton Moor, Derbyshire GR: SK241630
The Andle Stone or Oundle Stone is a dominating outcrop of sandstone, standing alone in the middle of a field, surrounded by a dry-stone wall and a mass of rhododendrons. Approximately 5m high by 4.5m wide, the rock is supposedly carved with ancient cupmarks on the, modern graffiti, a relatively recent inscription and climbing holes on the sides.

Nine Stones Close submitted by funsize on 4th Jun 2007. Seen from the south with just a hint of sunshine illuminating the frozen landscape around the stones. The guardian oak tree is the perfect companion to the last remaining stones of what was once a much larger monument.

Log Text: What a great chamber to visit.5 minute walk from where the car was parked in Rhoslan village.
Visited on a glorious sunny day, and despite it being a sunny week the inside of the chamber was still incredibly boggy/waterlogged which made it impossible to get 'under' the impressively large capstone. Despite this it was still a great visit.
