Log Text: How this hasn't got an ambience rating of 5 on here I do not know, it's on the only mountain in the peaks with such fantastic views! Actually stumbled on this blindly following the wrong path back to Jacobs Ladder. It's a decent size and to think this was such an important place for people to bury their loved ones in such a remote and often bleak setting...

Thornborough (Bucks)
Date Added: 14th Feb 2025
Site Type: Barrow Cemetery
Country: England (Buckinghamshire)
Visited: Yes on 5th Jun 2024. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 3 Access 4
Thornborough (Bucks) submitted by JoAtherton on 25th Jun 2023. Thornborough Mounds between Buckingham and Milton Keynes are a pair of 2nd Century burial mounds. During this period, wealthy landowners looked towards the past to establish a claim on the land. By mimicking the burial traditions of the Bronze and Iron Age, these mounds would have indicated a historic lineage and legitimate ownership of the land. This is why this type of monument is typically situated to be visible from routes and trackways, a bold display of longstanding occupancy, whether or n...

Long Low
Date Added: 14th Feb 2025
Site Type: Long Barrow
Country: England (Staffordshire)
Visited: Yes on 9th Feb 2025. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 5 Access 4
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.

Log Text: Used as a gatepost. Would be lovely if the hedge was trimmed back so it was easily distinguishable. If you hadn't an OS map or previous knowledge, you'd walk right by it.
