Boddington Camp

Boddington Camp submitted by Andy B on 20th Dec 2010. Boddington Banks looking east.
While this picture gives a good idea of what has survived, two thousand years ago the bank would have been higher and topped by a palisade, while the ditch would have been deeper and with steeper sides.

Tregeseal East
Date Added: 18th Jan 2011
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 17th Sep 2010. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 4 Access 4
Tregeseal East submitted by Andy B on 24th Mar 2010. Photo from June 2009.
