Vi son stato 2 volte ma prima o poi tornerò in quel posto magico..... 18. Bladup: Bedd Morris must be high on the list but for some reason it doesn't give it's position, Maybe that's because it's had photo's recently added, It's exactly the same for Devil's Quoit (Stackpole) Standi... 19. Anne T: This image was originally uploaded to the Barsu Petroglyphs page.

I had been up on the Preselli hills most of the day before then, then travelled back to Tenby where I... 55. Anne T: Thanks for this update. Go9d to know. Archaeology News Online didn't specify the exact monument/site it was, and as I wasn't at all familiar with the area, hoped someone would correct me. When I'm bac... 56. Megalithika: Was it really only found in 2008? Seems close to houses or village? Atmospheric photo! I can feel the squelchy ground.... 57. Anne T: What a coincidence! We were there from about 14:50 until 15:30. You didn't by any chance visit St David's Church, Bridell on 11th, did you? When I photographed the cross inscribed stone there, I wa... 58.

The young girl is swinging the stone I guess? (we usually call this rocking, as in "rocking stone") Do you think ... 69. Bladup: It's a manipulated (by me) google satellite image (for some reason this one didn't have google written all over the image), I used it because i hadn't seen the barrow to the NE so clearly before (or t... 70.

Andy B: Hello, some 'smart' phones report their location as the location of the nearest phone mast and embed this in the photo. I assume that was the case here.

Klingon: The coordinates of the Admin Note are located in the middle of a residential building.... 89. Bladup: In my opinion all the other photo's on the sitepage are of the small Carn Ferched outcrop, My photo's are of the burial cairn, This cairn also matches perfectly the archeological description of it.... 90. TheCaptain: I'm just back from a week in Pembrokeshire, and checking places I visited, this cairn being one of them. For this cairn I was expecting to see stones, but i found none. Had I got the wrong place? I c... 91. w650marion: I agree, we also love to visit old churches, and leave a small offering to the spirits there. It's like the pleasures of visiting stones, burial cairns and tombs. I was reading about walking pilgrimag... 92. Anne T: Hi Paul, many thanks for the comment. To a very large extent, I do agree with you. It was so very frustrating travelling all that way and not being able to get in, especially as it was the third chu... 93.
