Therfield Heath submitted by Thorgrim on 16th Sep 2003. There are ten Bronze Age round barrows at this prominent location - one of the best in eastern England. Surrounded by golfers which makes a site visit hazardous. Bunkers often mislead the barrow hunter but this group is unmistakeable.

Log Text: Very well preserved as a whole, though excavations have completely obliterated some individual mounds. Great surrounding views of other barrows on the golf course.

Log Text: Beautiful building with a very small car park (which I missed and parked further up the road). Most of the carvings on the lower section of the cross are very easy to recognise, especially when following along with the story of Sigurd on Lancashire Past’s website.

Log Text: Wouldn’t be worth visiting even if you happened to be on the path above it. Almost invisible to the eye now and difficult to make out even when running your hand along it. Could only make out very faint lines when comparing my photos to previous ones.

Lancaster City Museum submitted by AngieLake on 18th Sep 2011. The imposing grey stone building behind the market stalls is Lancaster Museum. Free entry, and not to be missed for a very interesting and well-laid out exhibition of artefacts from prehistoric up to present times.
[Apologies to the young man coming towards the camera! We visited Lancaster briefly on a Saturday when a street market was in full swing in this square. I went back on the Tuesday pm to have a better look around.]

Apologies for the quality of the picture, it is a bit blurred and the only photo I have of this site with a bit of space around and some people in for scale.
