Bratton Long Barrow
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Long Barrow
Country: England (Wiltshire)
Visited: Yes on 13th Aug 2007
Bratton Long Barrow submitted by AngieLake on 13th Aug 2007. Looking at the barrow from the west end is deceiving, you'd never credit how long it is.
Here you can see how it lies on the northern-facing slope near the top of the hill, inside Bratton Camp fortifications.

Bratton Camp
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Wiltshire)
Visited: Yes on 13th Aug 2007
Bratton Camp submitted by AngieLake on 13th Aug 2007. The Westbury White Horse and Bratton Camp's western embankments.
This shows a little more of the panoramic view to the north than Jim's pic did, except it doesn't show the horrid factory!

Bow Henge
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Henge
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 10th Aug 2009
Bow Henge submitted by AngieLake on 10th Aug 2009. Bow Henge viewed from the air during the drought of 1984. [Excuse quality, but this is an old photocopy from 'Devon's Past - an Aerial View' by Frances Griffith*, which has been tucked away in a file for ages, hence the crease.]
*In 2005 she was Devon County Archaeologist.
Her description:
"The cropmarks here represent the remains of quite a large prehistoric ceremonial structure - some 60m by 70m overall - which would previously have been a prominent feature of the landscape. The cropm...

Boskednan stone circle
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 15th Oct 2004
Boskednan stone circle submitted by AngieLake on 15th Oct 2004. The portals at Boskednan as they appeared in March 2004, before the huge stone on the left of picture was re-erected. Carn Galva, which now seems to be framed by these stones, is visible on the right horizon. Between the tall standing stone and the rocky outcrop of Carn Galva, can just be seen the pointed stones of the 'destroyed barrow' (as described by Ian McNeil Cooke in his excellent book "Mermaid to Merrymaid - Journey to the Stones").

Boskednan A
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Cairn
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 15th Oct 2004
Boskednan A submitted by AngieLake on 15th Oct 2004. This eye-catching stone is in what first appears to be a small circle, near the footpath to Boskednan from Men an Tol. According to the OS map (Explorer 102) it is a 'Tumuli', (near "Carn Galver"). It is on the higher ground (its own little ridge - 227m), and seems to point to the right of Carn Galva, on the left of picture, and more towards the knobby outcrop of granite in the right distance. (The only thing possible on the map is "Little Galver", or further north, "Hannibal's Carn"). Either ...

Boscawen Un
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 31st Oct 2004
Boscawen Un submitted by AngieLake on 31st Oct 2004. Boscawen Un (or 'Boscanoon', as the local man called it), was looking lovely in March 2004, with no ferns to mar the view of the stones. This pic was cobbled together from two separate ones, so wouldn't win any prizes. However, it does give an overview of the site, showing the late afternoon shadow cast by the giant gnomon in the (off) centre. A few minutes later, and a few hundred yards between here and the main road, I discovered the scarily spooky Creeg Tol.

Bodowyr
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Passage Grave
Country: Wales (Anglesey)
Visited: Yes on 5th Dec 2004
Bodowyr submitted by AngieLake on 5th Dec 2004. This is the gorgeous (and possibly important) view from the 'front' of Bodowyr burial chamber, down the sloping field, and across the Menai Straits towards the noticeable dip in the mountains of North Wales mainland. I would imagine the dip would be the gap between Snowdon (on the right) and Glyder Fawr (left), where the Llanberis Pass runs. Maybe the sun rose in that dip at Midwinter Solstice, as it would seem to be in a southeasterly direction? Its rays would then have illuminated the tomb ...

Country: England (Lancashire)
Visited: Yes on 14th Sep 2004
Bleasdale submitted by AngieLake on 14th Sep 2004. This is the (north?)western half of Bleasdale wooden circle. My brother is 6'1" tall, for comparison.
This is a rare timber circle, where the posts have been replaced by concrete markers.

Blackaton Down south (Hamel Down)
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Cairn
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 22nd Apr 2007
Blackaton Down south (Hamel Down) submitted by AngieLake on 22nd Apr 2007. The long shadow across the centre of pic is the ditch - the best I could do with photographing the 'Concave barrow' or cairn on Hamel Down. Also known as Blackaton Down north cairns. Silhouetted left is the outline of Bowl Barrow (Blackaton Down north cairn) and if you look closely, Two Barrows (south) is just visible in the far corner of the field.
(Follow line of wall on right).

Blackaton Down north (Hamel Down)
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Cairn
Country: England (Devon)
Visited: Yes on 22nd Apr 2007
Blackaton Down north (Hamel Down) submitted by AngieLake on 22nd Apr 2007. The first Bowl Barrow approached from the south along Hamel Down's ridge. Also known (Butler) as Blackaton Down north cairn. Here it looks quite imposing, but is nowhere near as large as the higher Broad Barrow. The scattered sheep's bones in the foreground gave the scene a rather macabre ambience!

Beuno's Well (Clynnog Fawr)
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Holy Well or Sacred Spring
Country: Wales (Gwynedd)
Visited: Yes on 11th Jul 2006
Beuno's Well (Clynnog Fawr) submitted by AngieLake on 11th Jul 2006. St Beuno's Well, or Fynnon Beuno, at Clynnog Fawr. This was once very popular with pilgrims and looked very inviting from the road. (Beware when visiting, as this road is lethal - the traffic whizzes past about an inch from your nose; and, fool that I am, I was there at leaving work time! There are no pavements and it's quite narrow, with no verge. I walked along it trying to catch a glimpse of the dolmen, as well as the well!)
