West Kennett Long Barrow
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Long Barrow
Country: England (Wiltshire)
Visited: Yes on 3rd Aug 2007
West Kennett Long Barrow submitted by AngieLake on 3rd Aug 2007. Stone 23 stands on the right-hand side of WKLB end chamber. (Piggott and Atkinson's excavation plan in 1956-57 gives numbers to stones.)
I didn't notice any special features in these stones (see also No.s 21 and 22) when taking the photos, but from this angle a long face can be seen. (Long nose near right of pic, and small round eyes above, with small - 'o' - mouth lower right.)

Whispering Knights submitted by AngieLake on 25th Nov 2006. The Whispering Knights discussing the visit of Aubrey Burl on 19th June 2005.
It was a *very* hot day, and Dr Burl and other important people were still cooling off in the marquee by the Kings Men, having walked to see these stones at the end of their new pathway to declare it 'open'.

Yar Tor Prehistoric Homestead submitted by AngieLake on 6th May 2009. The most prominent stones of the site, at the higher end of the area. Butler says: "A large hut (9.5 m) with some massive stones in its wall ...", so I imagine this is what he was referring to.

Zennor Quoit
Date Added: 26th Sep 2010
Site Type: Portal Tomb
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes on 18th Oct 2006
Zennor Quoit submitted by AngieLake on 18th Oct 2006. One more shot that is slightly different. The Quoit is so enthralling artistically, that even a slight move reveals another great design.
You can see how prolific the bracken was, but I was also delighted to see lots of wild cornflowers growing around its base.
