Kendrew Quadrangle  Henge  England  Oxfordshire  Visited  8th Dec 2024  -1  1  5  Although nothing remains of this site, which has long been destroyed, I thought that it would be interesting to visit the location and try walking the location of the Henge where possible. Based on the information already posted on the Megalithic Portal and an article from Oxonensia by Lambrick from...

Caer-Dyni  Burial Chamber or Dolmen  Wales  Gwynedd  Visited  22nd Jul 2024  2  5  4  Situated within easy reach of Criccieth this site deserves to be better known even if it has sustained some damage. Rather than accessing it from the car park off the main road I think it is best appreciated by walking along the path by Dylan's restaurant between the railway and the golf course. The...

Rhoslan  Burial Chamber or Dolmen  Wales  Gwynedd  Visited  25th Jul 2024  4  4  4  It is surprising that such an impressive and easy to access site is so little known - it is almost 'hidden in plain sight' an easy 5 minute walk from the hamlet of Rhoslan. The size of the capstone really needs to be seen to be appreciated!     
Dyffryn Ardudwy  Portal Tomb  Wales  Gwynedd  Visited  26th Jul 2024  3  4  5  A fascinating and delightful site with a complex and interesting history! The chambers have been subject to repairs using bricks and mortar to create additional pillars, but this does not prevent an appreciation of the site. Although it is situated adjacent to a school and houses, and is close to th...

Chinnor Hill Barrows  Round Barrow(s)  England  Oxfordshire  Visited  19th Aug 2023  3  5  4  The Chinnor Hill barrows are recognisable but are covered in vegetation so could be missed at first. However there is a sign to show their location, and once found the nature and layout of the site becomes clear. Situated on top of the Chiltern escarpment in the heart of nature reserve this site has...

Carn Euny Fogou  Souterrain (Fogou, Earth House)  England  Cornwall  Visited  21st Jul 2022  4  4  4  Situated in the heart of Carn Euny village, this was my first visit to a Fougou and it did not disappoint! It was interesting to see how it interacts with the buildings in the village and find the signs of how its layout has evolved. Visited during a July heatwave, so the intererior of the Fougo...

Carn Euny Village  Ancient Village or Settlement  England  Cornwall  Visited  21st Jul 2022  4  5  4  Visiting this site required negociating some narrow country lanes, but it is signed and is well worth the effort of reaching it. There is a small parking area and Carn Euny is a short walk away from here. The remains of the houses are clearly visible and the walls can clearly be made out. There a...

Boscawen Un  Stone Circle  England  Cornwall  Visited  21st Jul 2022  5  5  4  A circle which is not only interesting, but also evocative and atmospheric. There is a short walk from the A30 layby through Willowherb and Bracken to reach it, and a small rise in the path affords a tantalising preview glimpse of the circle just before arriving at it. Boscawen Un sits within its ow...

Pipers (nr Merry Maidens)  Standing Stones  England  Cornwall  Visited  21st Jul 2022  4  4  3  Near the Merry Maidens but not visible from the circle itself. Not as easy to spot from the road as expected due to high hedges, but impressive enough once located!     
Nun Careg Cross  Ancient Cross  England  Cornwall  Visited  21st Jul 2022  3  3  5  An unexpected bonus when walking from the Merry Maidens to The Pipers! It is eroded but still very much recognisable although as it sits by the roadside some care is needed when viewing it.     
Tregiffian Barrow  Chambered Tomb  England  Cornwall  Visited  21st Jul 2022  3  3  5  This site is easily accessible by road, as the road was actually built across part of it. Still well worth a visit and recognisable as a Barrow, although sadly most people driving past (through?) it will have no idea it is there!      
Merry Maidens (Circle)  Stone Circle  England  Cornwall  Visited  21st Jul 2022  5  4  5  A neat and tidy circle which is also easy to access. As it is adjacent to the road and has its own layby it can get busy but it is worth lingering to find a quieter moment to appreciate it.      
Lanyon Quoit  Portal Tomb  England  Cornwall  Visited  19th Jul 2022  4  4  4  Lanyon Quoit stands next to the road and can be seen from it as you approach. It looks impressive and stands out against the landscape, making for a fine sight. Although it has been reconstructed and has lost some height and impact as a result, it is still a fine and interesting sight and well worth...

Whit Stones  Standing Stones  England  Somerset  Visited  1st Sep 2021  4  5  4  These two stones are situated just off the main A39 road near to the top of Porlock Hill. They can be accessed by a short walk from the nearby parking layby and the white stones stand out clearly against the heather moorland. The site is spectacularly situated with fine view across Exmoor and out to...

Hoar Stone at Enstone  Chambered Tomb  England  Oxfordshire  Visited  25th May 2020  2  4  5  This site sits directly adjacent to the road but is still extremely easy to miss amongst the trees unless you know the exact location. The huge megaliths still manage to impress and in my opinion this site much more atmospheric and imposing than the more famous Whsipering Knights at Rollright. Well ...

Devil's Arrows  Stone Row / Alignment  England  Yorkshire (North)  Visited  2nd Jul 2021  3  3  5  Access and information has improved since my last visit. A new road (Marina Lane) branches off Roecliffe Road on the way into Boroughbridge and this now features a small parking area with an information board about the stones which seems to be aimed at visitors to the Devils Arrows. One of the Ar...

Badbury Hill  Hillfort  England  Oxfordshire  Visited  1st May 2021  2  4  5  The earthworks are still visible although they are low in some places. However they can still be clearly traced. The interior is planted with beech trees and carpeted in bluebells in the spring, when it can often become busy. Outside these times it is usually quiet.     
Devils Quoits  Stone Circle  England  Oxfordshire  Visited  1st Jul 2009  5  3  4  An impressive circle-henge, this site is almost a total restoration. A few stones survived the plough until the early 20th century, when they were buried to make room for an airfield. This is turn became a quarry and a landfill site so that the site exists at all is something for which we should be ...

Wayland's Smithy  Long Barrow  England  Oxfordshire  Visited  1st Jun 2004  4  5  3  Wayland's Smithy is well preserved Severn-Cotswold long barrow which enjoys a delightful setting amidst a small plantation of trees. The approach along the ridgeway makes for a fine prelude and a visit can also be combined with a visit to Uffington Castle and White Horse. The large stones at the fro...

Knowlton Rings  Henge  England  Dorset  Visited  28th Sep 2020  3  4  5  A quite remarkable site with an atmosphere and ambience of its own. The presence of the church within the Henge gives a stark illustration of the efforts made to christianise ancient sites. Yet now the church itself stands in ruins and the neolithic still seems to overshadow the Norman era here. A f...
