Heddington 1 submitted by 4clydesdale7 on 30th Sep 2011. From the S the damage caused by quarrying is easily seen - it still stands proudly over the adjacent Long Barrow

Hangman's Stone (Northleach)

Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)

Visited: Yes on 31st Jan 2012. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 3 Access 4
Hangman's Stone (Northleach) submitted by thecaptain on 14th Jan 2007. Is this the remains of a burial chamber from a longbarrow ? Is it a fallen menhir ? Is it a more modern boundary stone ? Is it the remnants of a hangmans gibbet ?
I don't know, but to me it could easily be the remains of a burial chamber.

Log Text: The approach from Badminton Village springs a beautiful surprise as you meet the T-junction (with footpath/track going to S) shown on the map even more so in summer on a late sunny evening - lots to investigate with many stones around and on the Cairn - probably a veritable 'treasure chest' on careful examination

Visited: Yes on 27th May 2011. My rating: Ambience 4 Access 3
Gatcombe Lodge submitted by thecaptain on 24th Mar 2009. Having read several tales of people being stopped and questioned by rapidly arriving police here, I didn’t spend long, and just took a photo from the entry to the estate.
It looks to be the regular shapeless lumpy bumpy mess covered in trees.

Fox Covert NW submitted by hamish on 9th Feb 2004. ST781779. Tormarton. Chambered Tomb.
I don't know if you mean this one, but the ref. is very close. There is a ploughed out tumulus just east of this. I couldn't see anything across the road, so I presume this is it. I was here on a warm late summer day with swallows and loads of insects after my sweat. It is a great site. It is also just through the farm gate.
