I'd like to become a volunteer to record the Jersey data as I note you don't have anyone here - but I'm not sure how to go about it. I have the photographs and facts etc - how do I start?

Hello,
That would be very welcome, thanks.
First, have a look at the sites we already have listed.
http://www.megalithic.co.uk/search.php?query=&country=12&county=-774616149&type=stories
Additional photos would be welcome from these. Posting photos is quite easy, the most important thing is to get them resized down to about 750x500 and saved as a .JPG before sending them. Any good photo editing software can do this, There are more tips in our "About us/Help/FAQ" section in the menu.
For sites that we don't currently list then start by filling in the information into this form for each site.
http://www.megalithic.co.uk/submitsite.php
For Country select "Channel Islands and Isle of Man", then 'County' Jersey which is a bit idiosyncratic but works.
To plot on the map we need either a grid reference or a long/lat. If you have grid references then put WV plus the number (eg for Le Couperon which we already have it would be WV703542 ) For long lat it would be Lat 49.234607034061 and Long -2.035698926321
(note the minus)
Do ask if you need more help.
Thanks very much,
Andy
