Arthur's Seat

Arthur's Seat submitted by Andy B on 28th Aug 2011. Arthur's Seat from Crow Hill. There are a number of tops around Arthur's Seat that are much quieter than the summit proper. This picture is taken from the nearby Crow Hill, which contains remains of an old hill fort. Walkers can be see on Arthur's seat summit to the north. The City of Edinburgh, including the castle, is also visible on this hot and somewhat hazy lunchtime, as is the moon.

Ash Hill Long Barrow
Date Added: 4th Apr 2012
Site Type: Long Barrow
Country: England (Lincolnshire)
Visited: Yes on 23rd Jan 2011
Ash Hill Long Barrow submitted by Andy B on 23rd Jan 2011. Steve Fuller wrote: I do not have any photos as such but I do have some video footage and have taken a still from it looking north along the track at the farm.
As I said it is very overgrown although the barrow is very visible through the thorns if you go to have a look. Sunday afternoons probably best.

Log Text: I though this was perhaps a bit boring but the family liked it. I think it's the tiny enclosed off area that spoils the ambience.
