St Levan's Well submitted by hamish on 24th May 2005. It was a day with mist cover, a bit dangerous under foot and a long drop to the sea. It was exhilerating and well worth the effort.

West Tump submitted by hamish on 3rd Apr 2005. This is the very devil to find but here we go.Follow Buckle road to the saw mills and park there.Walk back up the road for about 100mtrs look for a mountain bike track on the right.Follow this track,cross a horsey path and follow track 'till you reach a wide horsey path.Follow this path up the hill ,when you reach the top cut to the right across the woods-no path here- you will see the Barrow through the trees.

Perthiduon submitted by hamish on 24th Jan 2005. It was a nice walk through the fields, four in all, could have missed it quite easily. I always find these to be quite poignant, little left to show the effort the ancestors used to erect them.

Bachwen submitted by hamish on 12th Jan 2005. This is the last of my pictures of this Dolmen, if you're in the area pay it a visit it's worth it. I said before about the pub,but if you're of a mind you can also visit St. Bueno's well just down the street from the Church it is said to be refreshing.
