Visited: Yes on 1st Jan 2013. My rating: Condition 1 Ambience 5 Access 5
Whitehawk submitted by Andy B on 3rd Jul 2024. On 14th May 2024 I visited the Neolithic Cannibals art installation and exhibition in Brighton created by sound artist Simon James and pupils from local schools up on the estate at Whitehawk. Simon explains: Lots of people ask why we called it Neolithic Cannibals. I discovered some historical 'othering' in the language used by an archaeologist to describe the Neolithic community on Whitehawk Hill, which reminded me how some of the students in less well off areas of Brighton get looked down on.

Yonder Bognie
Date Added: 30th Oct 2024
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Scotland (Aberdeenshire)
Visited: Would like to visit
Yonder Bognie Warden submitted by cosmic on 22nd Mar 2004. Yonder_Bognie at NJ601458 in Aberdeenshire is rated by Burl as a Class 3 Circle but I felt it deserves more due to its impressive recumbent.
The recumbent at about nine feet long by five feet high is almost flat on top and is one of the most impressive I've seen. The circle especially to the west side seems to have some rogue stones dumped into it - there is a profusion of stones around the perimeter of the neighbouring fields!
The owner lives at Kirkland Farm and seemed happy for me to vi...

Backhill Of Drachlaw submitted by cosmic on 22nd Mar 2004. Backhill of Drachlaw at NJ673463 in Aberdeenshire is rated as an Grade One Circle by Burl but personally on this trip I consider Yonder Bognie as more impressive. The stones are unusual in being basaltic with veins of pebbles in them - see close-up.
The farmer admitted to having dumped a rogue stone in the circle - I'll have to go back for another look!
Just under 300m away to the NNE is the huge Carlin Stone reckoned by Fred Cole to be the recumbent of another circle - personally I think...

Very difficult to find at the best of times, very overgrown with bracken. Littered with numerous boulders and stones however, revealing the cairn's identity, within the dense forest
