Lundy John O'Groats
Lundy John O'Groats submitted by Firewater : This is the view from inside John O'Groats on Lundy Island. Lundy's in the middle of the Bristol channel about 22 miles off the north Devon coast. The guide books only ever describe this site as "prehistoric" but much of the other archaeology in this area is Bronze Age. The whole of the island is a very peaceful place but this spot seems particularly quiet (Vote or comment on this photo)
Round Barrow in Devon
The site is a post-medieval farm house at the very north end of the island but is built on top of an old burial mound.
