Log Text: A mixture of natural & post medieval holes, very unlikely to be prehistoric due to shape & size of stones into which they are set & the general setting itself.

Robin Hood's Butts (Shropshire)
Date Added: 16th Jan 2017
Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Yes. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 5
Robin Hood's Butts (Shropshire) submitted by TimPrevett on 25th Apr 2004. A pair of round barrows 150 feet apart on the northern edge of The Long Mynd, bearing the same name of many other pairs of barrows throughout England.
The best preserved barrow is 110 feet in diameter, and 12 feet high, and fairly accessible, though a trouser clad trek through the heather is necessary. Its northern edge is bisected by a field boundary. Though now defined by a barbed wire fence, the boundary is thought likely to be of prehistoric origin.
The other barrow is some 60 feet acr...

Shooting Box Disc Barrow
Date Added: 16th Jan 2017
Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: England (Shropshire)
Visited: Yes. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 4
Shooting Box Disc Barrow submitted by TimPrevett on 25th Apr 2004. The best, most obvious barrow remaining on The Long Mynd, and the sole known example of a disc barrow in Shropshire.
It covers a circular area some 170 feet in diameter, with an outer raised heather-covered ring circa 15 feet wide, and the inner green mound 60 feet across and up to 8 feet high.
It is so named due a grouse shooting box that was on its northern side until 1992; it now leaves a large depression in the green mound, with a similar depression on the east side, suggesting another...

Figsbury Rings
Date Added: 16th Jan 2017
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Wiltshire)
Visited: Yes on 1st Oct 2016. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 4 Access 4
Figsbury Rings submitted by JimChampion on 23rd Jan 2005. January 2005. Looking at the NE section of the ramparts from within the rings. The highest portion of the rampart is visible behind the ash trees growing in the inner ditch. These are the only significant trees within the rings, which are now grazed to conserve the chalk grassland habitat. The red flag is a warning that the neighbouring MOD range is in use. From the ring you get an amazing view of the MOD's impact on the modern landscape north-east of Salisbury.
