Caer Caradoc (Church Stretton)
Date Added: 23rd Jun 2016

Caer Caradoc (Church Stretton) submitted by TimPrevett on 28th Jun 2004. Caer Caradoc, taken from a northwest angle on a lovely summer's morning. Indeed, this offers some formidable defense. If this were the place of Caratacus' last stand against the Romans, this would have indeed been something difficult to conquer, even by Roman standards. However, there is no evidence to confirm this suggestion.

Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Would like to visit
Bodbury Ring submitted by TimPrevett on 24th Apr 2004. A small univallate hillfort, survivng from the Iron Age as a ring with a commanding view across the area. It possibly incorporates an earlier cross dyke.
The Ring immediately overlooks Carding Mill Valley, cared for by the National Trust, on the eastern edge of The Long Mynd, also under the NT's care.

Sacred Spring, Bath submitted by Thorgrim on 8th Aug 2004. The hot springs still rise at Bath. Sacred to Sulis long before the coming of the Romans. Tourists stand in awe of the Roman outflow, but that is merely a drain. Here where the hot water bubbles up from the earth is the real mystery.
