Nab Head (Cheshire) submitted by PaulM on 30th Aug 2001. NAB HEAD ROUND BARROW
NGR: SJ94017884 (Landranger map 118)
Located on top of Nab Head (hence the trig point) overlooking the east Cheshire town of Bollington. The now vandalised barrow has 360 degree views across the Cheshire Plain to the Berwyn and Clwydian Hills, across south Manchester to Lancashire and east to the foothills of the Pennines taking in Windgather Rocks, Macclesfield Forest and Croker Hill.
A visit is highly recommended.

Long Low
Date Added: 26th Sep 2015
Site Type: Long Barrow
Country: England (Staffordshire)
Visited: Would like to visit
Long Low submitted by TimPrevett on 30th Jul 2006. Looking along Long Low to the SSW. Two interesting things about Long Low: 1) It is the only long barrow in Staffordshire, and 2) It has rounded ends, which are either described as two round barrows, or as rounded terminals. This is very reminiscent of the Broadmayne Bank Barrow in Dorset. Drystone walling intersects it in several places, and I styal is incorporated into one of the western side walls.

The Battle Stone (Ilam)
Date Added: 26th Sep 2015
Site Type: Ancient Cross
Country: England (Staffordshire)
Visited: Would like to visit
The Battle Stone (Ilam) submitted by TimPrevett on 30th Jul 2006. The Battle Stone - remains of an 11th Century Cross in the grounds of Ilam Hall. For most straightforward access, leave the church with the two Saxon Crosses, left to the river, then before the river turn right for a pleasant walk along its side. The cross is on the right hand side after about 10 minutes walking, as a wide meadow arcs to the left. The cross was not discovered until 1840, and the name, one must suppose, is down to the imagination of those who discovered it.
