Woodbarrow (Glos) submitted by Mr_Nakajima on 3rd Dec 2006. On a trip to the Cotswolds to look at barrows in November 2006 I decided to visit some of the lesser-known ones.
Woodbarrow is situated on a gentle slope with excellent views across the Cotswolds to the east. The barrow itself is very eroded, I estimate no more than half a meter high, and without a map would be very difficult to find.
The barrow is under grass in the corner of a ploughed field. In the photo you can just see a difference between the grass over the barrow and the crop comi...

Norbury Hillfort Barrow submitted by Mr_Nakajima on 3rd Dec 2006. On a trip to the Cotswolds to look at barrows in November 2006 I decided to visit some of the lesser-known ones.
This barrow sits just off a minor road in a field just to the north of a line of trees. In this picture, taken from the road looking south, the mound can just be seen as it is in shadow from the trees, the rest of the field being in sunlight. I estimate it is no more than half a meter high.
The minor road this barrow lies by is narrow but there are plenty of farm gates or passin...
