Nash Point Barrows submitted by sem on 5th Nov 2012. Thank the wall
If it were not for the wall these barrows would merge into the background. Even with it there, they only appear as green lumps against it's grey stones.

Heol y Mynydd Round Barrow submitted by sem on 5th Nov 2012. Barely visible
This barrow seems to be playing hide-and-seek. It is centre left behind the square rock. At 0.3m high, it is not the most imposing of ancient monuments.

Rhossili Down Cairn 2 submitted by sem on 12th Mar 2013. Just one of many cairns....
Site in West Glamorgan Wales
... presumably why it was given such a romantic name by the Glam Gwent AT. It is one of the more easy to find as the kerbing is obvious.

There are meant to be 9 barrows here. We found plenty of lumps and bumps plus the odd stone that seemed to have been placed with a purpose. But even using a GPS, we could not be sure if we had found anything.

Gray Hill circle submitted by sem on 6th May 2013. Luckily the winter die-back of vegetation allows a view of the whole circle. Unfortunately it also revealed some graffiti on the stone at the bottom right of the pic.
