Lundy Settlement
Lundy Settlement submitted by Firewater : There are a number of field boundaries still in place and the foundations of a collection of hut circles. This is one of them. If you look carefully on the horizon at the extreme right of this photo you might also spot a Bronze Age burial mound. (Vote or comment on this photo)
At the extreme north end of Lundy Island is a prehistoric settlement believed to date from around 1000 BC.
