Whitcombe 1 submitted by JimChampion on 24th Apr 2005. April 2005. Not easy to photograph as the long barrow is overgrown in the corner of Came Wood. This is a view of the NE end of the barrow, with its overlying bowl barrow, taken from atop the roots of a fallen tree.

Upwey Wishing Well submitted by TimPrevett on 21st May 2005. The gorgeous setting of Upwey Wishing Well. See the main entry for details. I have tested the water for ailments of the feet - a badly sprained ankle dipped for about 10 seconds on 5 occasions. Wonderfully refreshing cold flowing water to swollen and bruised tendons, but have had nothing miraculous!
This view looks downstream.

This is taken from the Bincombe Barrows, at sunset on 31st October 2003. A breathtaking location. The barrows for this are not obvious, but looking west from where I was, this was the most obtrusive barrow I could locate, with the wonderfully atmospheric view.

Tout Quarry Sculpture Park Stone Circle
Date Added: 21st Apr 2023

Visited: Yes on 20th Jun 2022. My rating: Condition 5 Ambience 3 Access 5
Tout Quarry Sculpture Park Stone Circle submitted by TimPrevett on 14th Aug 2017. 12/08/17
This circle (more of a 'cove' of stones, I suggest) at Portland's Tout Quarry Sculpture Park was officially opened on June 21st 2017. It's just on the south side of the arterial route at the top of north end of Portland, parking at The Heights Hotel just across the road, or if that's full, parking around the corner to the north of the hotel near The Olympic Rings monument. Not to be confused with "The Circle of Stones" further into the sculpture park.

Ridgeway Hill submitted by TimPrevett on 15th Jan 2021. A round barrow (visible back right) adjacent the site of 50 plus Viking executions at the hands of Anglo Saxons in a disused Roman quarry on the east side of the Roman Road from Weymouth to Dorchester - now the Weymouth Relief Road. Considerate parking near the bridge over the A354 to the west of Bincombe Down. Interpretation panels for the barrows and Viking executions a short walk through a gate. The barrow particularly good to view from the south west side.
