Kempston Cursus
Date Added: 5th Apr 2016
Site Type: Cursus
Country: England (Bedfordshire)
Visited: Yes on 20th Mar 2016
Log Text: tried to visit, but not sure place. BIAB and other sources leave a lot to be followed up, but Beds Arch 26 decides it isn't a cursus without saying whatever it is might then be.
There is a beautiful walk along the Great Ouse from the bus 1 on the main road to the church, in the church is an ancient great stone, so perhaps we have the stone and the bend in the river as something which will keep us going.
I've now found reference to collared urns in Kempston except that it is spelt collard, some typo somewhere, BIAB or not. Beds Arch J. 5, with illus, and references to follow up still to see what we can find out. A collared urn isn't exactly megalithic, but is a typecast for timeline.
Caesar's Camp (Bedfordshire)
Date Added: 5th Apr 2016
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Bedfordshire)
Visited: Yes on 2nd Apr 2016
Log Text: There seem to be three places called Ceasar's Camp, one might be Sandy Lodge, which is what it is called when excavation written up, another might be Galley Hill, not to be confused with Streatley, so not sure which I visited or whether there are simply different names for the same thing.
