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. The cattle were supposed to trample down the bracken but only ate the grass within the circle, destabilising several stones that, after we reported it to the Historic Environment Service in Truro, had to be secured. The HES then organised a manual cutting of surrounding bracken to give the cattle more space away from the circle!
So far this is the only major site to be affected, others not yet being grazed although it is planned to do this at Men-an-Tol and Lanyon Quoit.

Bury Walls

Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Yes on 17th May 2010
Bury Walls submitted by Andy B on 17th May 2010. The earthworks of Bury Walls hillfort. Almost all the earthworks are tree-covered, the area having been planted with forestry in the 1950s. This makes them rather hard to see in detail.
It's possible to walk most of the way around the top of the ramparts, although the track is narrow and overgrown in one or two places.
