Westbury White Horse submitted by dodomad on 26th Jul 2021. Westbury Horse - one of a set of illustrations by Eric Ravilious, featuring hill figures from the south-east and south-west of England, all painted in 1939, and intended to illustrate a children’s book he was working on for Puffin.
Now available as a set of postcards from Rather Good Art.
The book got as far as the mock-up stage by 1942, but sadly never reached completion. Ravilious was recorded as missing in that year (‘death presumed’), after a patrol searching for a missing L...

Stoney Littleton submitted by TheCaptain on 18th Mar 2005. Stoney Littleton barrow viewed from the west.
Its a cracking little barrow, with the most wonderful passage and chambers inside, and the powers that be have even left a decent sized area around it free of any farming activity. A lovely sunny day, but some of the walk to the barrow was horrendously muddy.
The fields around the barrow had recently been ploughed, a crop of beet of some sort having been the last grown. While walking back after my visit, I found a bit of the lovely golden colou...

Callanish 3 submitted by Andy B on 13th Nov 2022. Bruce Adams, one of our members since 2012, sadly died last month - he had motor neurone disease. Bruce wrote: "Over the years I have assembled albums recording my visits to stone circles and related sites. I would very much like to pass these on to someone who will appreciate them. I am not asking for payment and only have a desire to see them go to a good home. I would rather not see them broken up and dispersed."
I am currently looking after Bruce's albums and will be sharing some of the...

Log Text: This stone is marked on the OS map as The Long Stone.
At a glance it would appear that Moorgate Stone is a solitary stone in the middle of a field but you soon realise that it is much, much more. Alongside it is a rough patch of land with two more upright stones and a circle of fallen and broken stones. They are large, flat-bottomed stones and certainly not stones cleared from the field. There is a stone bank that divides the site. The site has an almost 360 degree view typical of many other stone circles. To stumble on this on our first day in Cornwall was more exciting than I can tell you.

The Hurlers North submitted by theCaptain on 25th Jan 2014. Possible newly recognised fourth stone circle to the north of the three well known Hurlers circles.
A few stones slightly poke through the turf, with others hidden, and with an "eye of faith" a circle can be made out.
