Goonhilly tumuli
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 26th Oct 2007
Goonhilly tumuli submitted by AngieLake on 26th Oct 2007. This is another burial mound near Dry Tree menhir. Indeed, when I was searching for the stone with my dowsing rods, on 22nd May 07, I was led here, so am wondering if the stone (which was re-erected) might possibly have stood on this mound originally?
(The bracken was very vigorous then, and it was difficult to access, but two large stones stand either side of the mound, one slightly obscured in the vegetation!)
Please see plan submitted for this site's position, to the east of Dry Tree me...

Giants Grave, Kirksanton
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Standing Stones
Country: England (Cumbria)
Visited: Yes on 18th Nov 2005
Giants Grave, Kirksanton submitted by AngieLake on 18th Nov 2005. I wonder if this is what Jack is referring to as the cup-mark on the eastern stone at Kirksanton? (See the large circular mark about 1/3 of the way up the near stone).

Figsbury Rings
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Wiltshire)
Visited: Yes on 25th Feb 2010
Figsbury Rings submitted by AngieLake on 25th Feb 2010. I don't think the late John Michell would begrudge us the sight of this photo [credited to 'Cambridge University collection'] on page 81 of 'A Little History of Astro-Archaeology', 2001 edition, Thames & Hudson.
Thom's plan shows a mound which would have been visible from Stonehenge as a mark of a southern extreme of the moon.

Site Type: Portal Tomb
Country: Wales (Gwynedd)
Visited: Yes on 24th Jun 2007
Dyffryn Ardudwy submitted by AngieLake on 24th Jun 2007. Just in case anyone makes the mistake I did when visiting Dyffryn Ardudwy in 03 (asked in shop and directed to another at top of hill!)
THIS is the gate near the school which is used to access the narrow lane to the site. I parked in a cul-de-sac just to the west of here.

The ancient Dunnabridge Pound Farm is just out of sight on the right of picture. In the centre of the picture, just to the right of the field gate is The Judge's Seat.

Visited: Yes on 25th Sep 2008
Dunchraigaig Cairn submitted by AngieLake on 25th Sep 2008. Walked past this one on the way to Ballymeanoch monuments in 2002. Maybe it suffers from lack of interest because of visitors' urge to see the other site?

Dunadd Fort submitted by AngieLake on 4th Sep 2006. Dunadd hill fort has a natural entrance which must have been quite easy to seal off and defend. Looking through it from the first level.

Duloe

Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 19th Jul 2005
Duloe submitted by AngieLake on 19th Jul 2005. This huge dramatic stone in the south of Duloe circle was constantly haunting me as I surveyed and dowsed this lovely circle (why only 3 for ambience?) one sunny early evening at the end of May 2005. I was convinced someone else was there, just out of the corner of my eye, but it was the almost-human shape of this stone - like some kind of ancient priest in a billowing robe! In the left half of this double pic, where 'he''s facing us, you can almost decipher a face and headdress too. On the righ...

Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Wales (Conwy)
Visited: Yes on 7th Oct 2005
Druids Circle (Penmaenmawr) submitted by AngieLake on 7th Oct 2005. The view north east across Conway Bay towards Llandudno. The Druids Circle is one of the most beautifully-situated circles I've visited, and well-worth the walk. Is it possible to 'fall in love' with a circle? Well I did with this one!
