6. TheCaptain: I like what looks like a ring of molehills around the outside of the cairn. The cairn stone obviously prevents them surfacing from within !...
7. Horatio: nice one Harry...
8. Horatio: nice photo Marion and good job on reporting (heritage crime). Ibe had a look at how this is supposed to look as I dont know this site, keep up the great work ...

16. wildtalents: I think I got distracted somewhere along the line and didn't use the site for ages. I'm not sure I still have the original photos so this was a nice surprise. Thanks...
17. Andy B: Wow is this your photo - added Jun 17 2002 about a year after we started - I didn't realise you have been with us that long! I have added it as one of yours....
18. chrisy7615: Hi its been a while since someone posted but the LC will probably stand for Lord Crewe what become CT crewe Trustees...
19. wildtalents: I must have uploaded this photo a very long time ago (well, obviously - the first comment is from 2003) and I was surprised to find it in the list of photos for Arthur's Stone. As pointed out by baz, ...
20. Bladup: Thanks Angie, Nice of you to say/think so...
21. AngieLake: Just thinking: This picture would make a good banner for Meg P front page if it was cropped a bit top and bottom....
22. Bladup: Thank you Blingo and Angie, When i first saw those wind turbines many years ago (As you will have done yourselves) i honestly thought that by now we'd have all our energy from the Sun, Wind and Sea, I...
23. Bladup: Totally natural in my opinion...
24. AngieLake: Beautiful Paul! ...
25. Blingo_von_Trumpenstein: Good work Paul. Love the wind turbine lurking....
26. paulcarling: The 'cup-mark' is in the line of an intrusive thin vein in the granite. These veins (apophyses) are common in Shap granite. They are often associated with 'blobs' of intruded material (usually gray ...

36. TheCaptain: Oh, there went a couple of hours! I have had a good sort out of our Carrowmore sitepages, giving each a unique position with teh help of this website ...
37. Fairycake: Is that a picture in red ochre on the wall or just a stain? ...
38. TheCaptain: I agree. I will change this and others we have as 53. It looks like we dont have every Carrowmore tomb as a seperate sitepage, and the positions of many of them could do with a bit of a sort out, but ...
39. dooclay: The Marker would suggest that this is Cairn 54?...
40. JimChampion: Today I learned that this one is called The Toad Stone....
41. Andy B: Thanks for these photos of the info boards Nigel, and all the others...

53. Horatio: Erich von Däniken has a lot to answer for. Can you believe it, he's 89 now!...

55. AngieLake: @ Catrinm : I contacted Dr Kevin Dixon for you, see site page comment of 13th January 2012, but he doesn't know any more about the access or the owner/farmer and hadn't been there for a long time. ...
56. Horatio: Yes, correct Angie it is Poundbury behind...
57. AngieLake: On the site page in July 2012 it says the farmer had erected Private signs, so I don't know what the situation is now. I was able to get there in the past with the help of a lady who knew how to acce...

84. Horatio: Hi Angie, thanks, the weather here in Wales has just been horrific for so long (continual rain) so not been able to get out to my beloved stones. But I've just had a long weekend visiting my Father i...
85. AngieLake: Great pics Horatio. Have just uploaded the 2008 dowsing plan for you to check out. I didn't quite finish it, but it seems to represent long 'horns' of the forecourt....
86. AngieLake: Good to see you posting again Horatio! I did get a forecourt type movement when I dowsed here in 2005: ...
87. Grumpyphil: I don’t think this photo is of the actual well. Lower down the field is what appears to be a fenced off area. Which contains these gratings. They could be for United Utilities or merely a mechanism ...
88. CharcoalBurner89: @Bladeup: The music is always chosen by the person who is driving :D @Boeddel: I didn't ask my father about it :D My mother wanted one. So my dad got one too. My mother is also more interested...
89. lucylocket: I think I might be about to disappoint you. I live in a nearby village and a friend has told me that, years ago, he was speaking to the farmer who owns the field. The farmer said that, when the nearby...
90. stonetracker: Approx location of this feature: 35.49746, -88.68206...
91. Bladup: Love it, But who gets to pick the music?...
92. Boeddel: Great photo Uwe. My parents aren't that interested in prehistory. But in 2019 I was in the Netherlands with my father because the Motocross of Nations was in Assen and we visited many of the graves a...
93. CharcoalBurner89: Thanks Andy! :) They like the shirts very much! ...
94. Andy B: Wow - I think that may have to go on the front page with a plug for the T shirts!...
95. CoppellaiaMatta: It's a rather odd feeling, you are constantly on that straight line... in the higher section the road shows signs of erosion around the edges; between Halnaker and Eartham Wood only a narrow path surr...
96. Bladup: Love it (What you looking at?)...
97. Bladup: Cheers, I hope it's clearer/drier for you, Stunning views when it is...
98. Horatio: flipin' eck Paul, another one I'm planning to visit this Thursday, time allowing (and weather) after checking out the stuff in the Abbotsbury- Long Bredy-Winterbourne Abbas triangle on my trip back to...
99. Horatio: Hi Paul, no not visited Figsbury Rings before, just looked at your route via Ogbury Camp too on my OS app, might have to do this, this summer solstice, as Ive not been to Ogbury Camp either...plenty t...
100. Bladup: Thanks Horatio, I'm not sure if you've been to Figsbury before but it's an easy place to visit and well worth it if you haven't, We walked from Stonehenge (Via Ogbury Camp) to Figsbury on the winter s...
