Yearnslow submitted by Vicky on 15th Dec 2001. Yearnslow, Rainow, near Macclesfield, Cheshire GR: SJ96457695
This interesting bowl-shaped mound (on the horizon in the centre of the picture) is situated on a knoll at 1175ft above sea level close to Yearnslow Farm. It was reputedly opened by some Derbyshire explorers in the 19th when some Roman coins, glass beads, and bones were found in it. Today the mound which is around 19m in diameter and just over one metre in height, is covered by ruined dry-stone walls.

Charles Head submitted by astronomer on 30th Sep 2011. Charles Head tumulus is on private land owned by Spring Bank Farm. Following unauthorized digging some years ago and the removal of artifacts, the present landowner expressly forbids access.
We were kindly granted access and permission to take photographs only because of personal relationships with nearby landowners.
The tumulus is approximately 1m high and 12m in diameter and is crossed, E-W, by a dilapidated stone wall.

Blue Boar Farm submitted by Vicky on 15th Dec 2001. Blue Boar Farm Barrow, Rainow, near Macclesfield, Cheshire GR: SJ970763
This scheduled conical mound stands in a field opposite Blue Boar Farm and was first mentioned in the 19th century. Standing on a naturally level platform on the ridge top, this tumulus was originally around 20m in diameter but because of ploughing it is now closer to 31m by 26m. It was excavated in 1972, but sadly there are no records as to what, if anything, was found.

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.
