Date Added: 28th Jun 2012
Site Type: Round Barrow(s)

Flat Howe (Farndale Moor) submitted by kelpie on 6th Mar 2004. Bowl Barrow
NZ 67307 01181
This barrow is little more than a rise in the ground a little over a metre high. On its top is the base of a medieval wayside cross. It appears to be unexcavated and stands 240m from a contemporary standing stone.

Finlaggan submitted by Andy B on 13th Jun 2011. Finlaggan Standing Stone
A solitary Standing Stone , naturally predating the Lordship of the Isles. As ever various theories surround the placing and use of the stone. However in 1994 Geophysic surveys by the "Time Team" suggest that there may have originally been a line of stones marking the way to Jura.

Date Added: 28th Jun 2012
Site Type: Broch or Nuraghe
Country: Scotland (Isle of Skye)
Visited: Yes
Dun Beag (Struan) submitted by funsize on 3rd Jun 2007. This ruined fort has a magnificent position overlooking Loch Bracadale with views of far way Beinn na Boinneid and Beinn Bhac-ghlais. As this site is right next to the road, it is well visited. In spite of this, it has a remote and reflective atmosphere.

Duddo Five Stones
Date Added: 28th Jun 2012
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Northumberland)
Visited: Yes
Duddo Five Stones submitted by kelpie on 16th May 2004. Stone circle in Northumberland at NT931437. There was no obvious path to the stones apart from through the crops so I took the shot from a distance. Burl believes that few if any of these stones are in their original positions but have probalby been re-erected through the years.

Dacre Church
Date Added: 28th Jun 2012
Site Type: Ancient Cross
Country: England (Cumbria)
Visited: Yes
Dacre Church submitted by nicoladidsbury on 22nd May 2005. St Andrew's Church - 9th Century Cross Fragment.
This is the smaller fragment, which is believed to date from the 9th century, was found in 1900 close to the Church and deep in clay. It is considerably damaged but some detail of the carving is still quite sharp. The least damaged face of the shaft, where the top has been broken off, shows two pairs of human feet. Beneath is a lion-like winged creature, with a large face and sorrowful eyes, with the head and part of the body of a serpent.

Clach na h'Annait submitted by kelpie on 27th Jul 2002. This standing stone appears in a field just off the road to Elgol. Apparently there is little known of its history or why it bears a connection to Annait on the other side of the island. NG 58954 20295

Chysauster Fogou

Chysauster Fogou submitted by enkidu41 on 26th Apr 2004. SW 4720 3483
Only 2 roofing lintels remain of this fogou associated with Chysauster Courtyard House village. The English Heritage response to the cost of restoration is sadly predictable.
