Lacra C submitted by LivingRocks on 31st May 2005. A stone circle or a stone row? If this is a circle it would have a large diameter, or be very irregular.

Birkrigg Common Settlement submitted by Alphasmam on 17th May 2014. Enclosure at SD288 747 or 748. The Birkrigg enclosures are easily missed unless you are specifically looking for them.This is a better image of one of the enclosures. As the bracken grows it is hard to see the outline but the vegetation is of varying colours.

Birkrigg Common Platform Cairn submitted by SumDoood on 17th May 2015. Looking south over the field boundary wall. It's not exciting, is it. And the farmer hasn't helped by leaving a sheep hay feeder in the middle of it.

Date Added: 29th Dec 2024
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Cumbria)
Visited: Yes on 29th Dec 2024. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 4 Access 3
Great Urswick Fort submitted by Alphasmam on 16th Jan 2015. According to Barrowclough"Prehistoric Cumbria" Skelmore Heads hillfort follows a sequence from stockade enclosure to earthwork fort which must have included a timber box- rampart.
I think this is an example of some of the earthwork.

Great Urswick Cross
Date Added: 29th Dec 2024
Site Type: Ancient Cross
Country: England (Cumbria)
Visited: Yes on 29th Dec 2024. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 5
Great Urswick Cross submitted by nicoladidsbury on 5th May 2005. Ancient Cross at St Mary and Michael's Church, Great Urswick.
The stone was found on the site by a turn-of-the-century vicar and was investigated on the site by the respected historian WG Collingwood, and may possibly describe a meeting between two important church leaders, and church rune stone holds the key to a 1600 year-old story that reveals the origins of Christianity in Britain.

Urswick Stone Walls
Date Added: 29th Dec 2024
Site Type: Ancient Village or Settlement
Country: England (Cumbria)
Visited: Yes on 29th Dec 2024. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 3 Access 3
Urswick Stone Walls submitted by Alphasmam on 18th May 2014. This enclosure is also known locally as Little Urswick Crags or Dimple Holes. The approach to the settlement enclosure is quite steep but very near to the road but over 3 almost vertical stiles. The field where the enclosure walls are found is covered with little bumps and hollows. I expect this is where the Dimple Holes name comes from. It is very idyllic and pastoral. There is a feeling of being enclosed by substantial dry stone walls and woodland.
