Log Text: The Chinnor Hill barrows are recognisable but are covered in vegetation so could be missed at first. However there is a sign to show their location, and once found the nature and layout of the site becomes clear. Situated on top of the Chiltern escarpment in the heart of nature reserve this site has a beautiful and spectacular location, with fine views available of the surrounding landscape and the local flora and fauna. It is a short walk on a good path from the nature reserve car park.

Castlehowe Scar Stone Circle submitted by baz on 3rd May 2003. Castlehowe Scar Stone Circle (NY587155).
Ten stones form this small stone circle which is now huddled up against a drystone wall, in a field with a locked gate. On the other side of the wall, there appears to be a stone row.

Carn Euny Village submitted by AngieLake on 31st Oct 2004. This view over the Carn Euny Settlement was taken in two shots, which are cobbled together to give an idea of how it looked in March 2004. Bec-Zog's pic is similar to this.

Log Text: Visiting this site required negociating some narrow country lanes, but it is signed and is well worth the effort of reaching it. There is a small parking area and Carn Euny is a short walk away from here.
The remains of the houses are clearly visible and the walls can clearly be made out. There are also other features visible such as paving and internal dividing walls in the houses. It does not take too much imagination to visualise how the village would have looked (with the help of some useful information boards) and it was interesting to consider how its inhabitants would have gone about their daily lives. There is also a Fougou here which makes it doubly worth visiting!

Carn Euny Fogou submitted by AngieLake on 2nd Jan 2005. This shot shows the huge but low (4.5ft - 1.4m) SE-facing doorway of the Carn Euny 'Beehive Hut' underground chamber, with its own short passage leading into the fogou passage which runs SW/NE, (but snaking here with a flatter, more W/E run), just outside the doorway. It is thought that the Beehive Hut (chamber) was the first structure on this site, so that originally the eastern wall of the fogou passage would not have obstructed the view. It is possible that the sun was meant to shine down t...

Log Text: Situated in the heart of Carn Euny village, this was my first visit to a Fougou and it did not disappoint! It was interesting to see how it interacts with the buildings in the village and find the signs of how its layout has evolved.
Visited during a July heatwave, so the intererior of the Fougou was dry!

Log Text: Situated within easy reach of Criccieth this site deserves to be better known even if it has sustained some damage. Rather than accessing it from the car park off the main road I think it is best appreciated by walking along the path by Dylan's restaurant between the railway and the golf course. The path turns sharp left to cross the railway and at this point the capstone is quite prominent on the hillside and is visible as you approach,. The views across the beach and town to the castle are spectacular.

The access to the main chamber being via a tunnel, the sides of which consist of large vertical slabs topped by substantial stone lintels.

Log Text: A circle which is not only interesting, but also evocative and atmospheric. There is a short walk from the A30 layby through Willowherb and Bracken to reach it, and a small rise in the path affords a tantalising preview glimpse of the circle just before arriving at it. Boscawen Un sits within its own enclosure, but even without this it would still have a tangible sense of place and space.
The leaning central stone is a focal point, but the whole site has a special fascination and beauty.
